Bill French My heartfelt condolences to Frank's son, Frank's sisters, and his extended family.Though we've been out of touch for years, thinking of Frank always brings back memories, some of which make me laugh out loud! Here's a short Cousin Frank memorable moment. Turning his transistor radio up full blast at Huntington Beach and doing "The Bird", to the song Surfin' Bird by the Trashmen. Long memory (hope that I don't run out of room). Frank, my brother John and I just hitting and fielding baseball at local school. Teenage bully and his toady watching us through a chainlink fence. Watching turns into BS and threat to beat us up. Frank looks over his shoulder at them, turns and charges fence with a baseball bat. Angry young Frank with bat impresses neighborhood bully and sidekick into a hasty retreat. He climbs back over the fence and proceeds hitting John and I fly balls. That bully never picked on me again! Hope to see you on the other side Frank!
