Our deepest sympathies to Janet, Shawn, Anne Marie, Andrew, and all of the family. We have so many wonderful memories of Frank - tea time, suppers, pizza parties, card games, square dancing at the school, the list goes on. He is one of the kindest and most giving people I have ever met and definitely one of the wittiest, he always made me laugh. He will have a special place in heaven.

Sending deepest sympathy to Janet and family on the loss of Frank. We were shocked to learn he had passed. We first met Frank & Janet at square dancing in Petawawa, and would often see them at the Eganville Legion dances. Frank was a smooth dancer. Cherish the wonderful memories.

Aunt Janet, Shawn, Andrew, Anne Marie and families, very sad to hear of Uncle Frank’s passing. I will always remember him being the first person up to dance and think of the way he could tell you a whopper of a story with a straight face. I’m sure he will be the life of the party in heaven too while we are missing him down here. Love Theresa (Morris) Thom
