  2. Ah Frank... you were like a dad as was Anthea a Mum to me when I first started working with you both, being only 17 you both took me in way back in 1996 and showed me the ropes and enjoyed many stories over the years particularly the army trips and the shenanigans you got upro, and how proud you were of your family. May you now be united with Anthea. And I sincerely apologise to family for missing Franks farewell.

  3. Frank was a good friend to me when I arrived in Colac as a new graduate vet and a Vietnam deferree. It happened that I arrived in Colac for my job interview by hitch hiking from Melbourne after flying into Essendon from Sydney. When I left Colac to move to Melbourne I no longer had a work car and Frank insisted that he would take me and my final belongings to my digs in Camberwell. He was not having me hitch hiking out of Colac.
    A kind man. RIP
