After moving to Denver, Colorado, he worked for Denver Housing as a pipe fitter and maintenance tech for a number of years until he retired in 1986. After retirement he enjoyed doing Genereal Contracting with his son Frank, Jr.

Frank accepted Jesus as his personal Savior in Januray 1996 at All Nations C.O.G.I.C. under the leadership of Bishop P. H. Porter, and has kept his commitment to the Lord ever since.

From a former marriage Frank became the father of 4 children. He married Mable Inez Mayes in 1962 and 2 children were born from this union. On December 7, 2011, Frank stepped from time into eternity, in a very peaceful way. All praises to God for that peace.
