Frank was pleased to be recognized in such a wonderful way. Frank loved his many nieces and nephews, who will remember him as a kind and loving uncle. Nieces Kim Waltee and Deb Lauer have fond memories of uncle Frank who hauled them around as children on his foot with their arms wrapped around his leg. Later, he would show Deb's husband, Gary, where the fishing spots were at Canyon Ferry and Hauser reservoirs. Mark, Kim's husband, has many memories of uncle Frank's hunting and fishing adventures.
