    Had a note from Bob Wray’s family informing us of Frank’s passing. I am so sorry to hear this. Have many wonderful memories of your parents and families, especially on trips to Minnesota, and spending time with Grandma and Grandpa (Hap and Doris) with your parents. Talk about an era coming to an end…but maybe that are all fishing together now up in heaven!! 🙂

    Grace and peace to you all.
