He and Rose were blessed to be married to each other for 35 wonderful years. After knowing Frank for only 3 weeks, Rose knew that God had put them together. God further blessed them with wonderful children and allowed both of them to see their children grow up and accomplish their dreams. Frank loved to eat, particularly seafood gumbo, Chinese food, sushi and kimchee. He also loved shooting his gun, watching old western and horror movies and cartoons. More than anything else he loved to do these things while in the company of his family. Spending time with Rose and his children was what he enjoyed more than anything else.
