Print Obituary & Condolences
Frank was an awesome person with a quick wit and humor. We always enjoyed being around him. He always seemed to know how to make something in life funny or humorous causing us to laugh.
One time while he was in a nursing facility, the staff kept bringing him green beans for lunch and dinner. Finally Frank asked the staff if they owned a green bean farm?
We will miss him and are praying for comfort for Wilma and family.
I am Doug Ledbetter and played 42 with Frank at the church. He was a bunch of fun to play with. I pray that the Lord will comfort all his friends, family and of course Wilma. God loves all of you.
Frank will be missed. He loved to tell jokes(that Wilma didn’t always approve of) and get us worked up. He was wise and gentle and I am thankful for the time I spent with him. I love my Crevices 🙂
Dearest Wilma, as your lifetime friends Jim & l always enjoyed meeting, greeting, laughing & sharing silly moments with both you & Frank. Such a neat guy!!!. We know it will be so hard for you and most sincerely lift prayers for you, our sweet, fun friend. May our Father God send down Special Angels to surround you & encouage you….& meet all your needs.
