Farewell, Haere ra, Frank. Your presence in my life as a "stand in Dad" encouraged me to go on to University and medical training. My passion for community service is thanks to you & Julie.
I find myself now married to a big-hearted lawyer, who reminds me of you.

Dear Lucy and family. My deepest sympathy on the loss of your father. I never met him, but from the other messages, he sounds like a person that I would definitely have loved to have met. Know that his beautiful soul is now resting in God's hands. God bless you and your family during this difficult time.

Deepest sympathy to all the family. My first memories of Frank goes back to our schooldays at Monte Cecilia College in the early 1940s and in later years around the bowling greens. It was always a pleasure to catch up with Frank on these occasions and enjoy his company.
