My memory of a much younger Frank during a war in SVN, was one of laughter. But it was laughter that concealed a hard driven determination. Rest in peace old friend.

Sorry to hear. Fond memories of good times at Taumarunui, the farm at Orangi, the famous Sartoris orchestra, and fun times at Taumarunui High.
My condolences to your family
