Your father by Pauline Whelan

I was so sorry to hear about your Dad’s death. No matter how you try to make it logical and inevitable it still comes as a huge shock. I sometimes think it is harder to lose a parent when you’re older as they’ve been there all the time for you.

Your dad is beyond any pain or suffering now, that’s left for those behind. As you know time does heal that terrible pain and life becomes easier. Do take time to grieve and don’t try to be too strong and stoical, you need time for you. Don’t let anyone tell you how long, how or when to grieve – that’s up to you.

Hopefully before long you’ll start to remember the good times and rejoice in all that your dad meant to you and did for you.

Take care, you’re in my thoughts and prayers.

Simply a gentle man... by Darren Thirkill

I am very honoured to be able to say that I had the priviledge of meeting Frank.

Frank was always such a gentleman and I was so very saddened to hear of his death.

My continued thoughts go with Norma and the family.

Dear friend by flo lunt

I first met Frank when he came to work for the same Company as myself. After a while I was transferred to his department We kept in touch after retirement and I am pleased to have counted him as a dear friend and able to talk to him on any subject or problem He had a very generous nature, and thought the world of Norma and his Family. I will remember Frank with a smile on my face and think of the happy times,and glad that he is no longer in pain, but at peace.

Frank by Ron Collinson

I am so saddened to hear of Frank's passing and my thoughts are with Norma, Steven and Debbie at this time. Frank was such a constant in the family as I grew up and it's hard to think he is no longer with us. In recent times I met with and corresponded with Frank more than we had for many years, sharing a common interest in the family history. His diligence and his passion for this put me to shame and I was hugely appreciative of his enthusiasm and his generosity in sharing the latest information gleaned. I will remember Frank simply as a nice guy and a gentleman, which are rare enough qualities these days but which I hope does him justice.
