Lord we thank you for the privilege of having served along side of men of this caliber. Help us never to forget nor allow others to forget soldiers like Frank. Encourage and embolden each of us to continue maintaining the belief that all men are created equal and deserves the right to choose. May we never accept injustice as an option but as a threat to freedom. The freedom of all freedom loving people around the world. Thank You Lord for sending so many like our brother that are willing to stand, and give their final breath to prevent the threat to freedom from becoming a reality. Frank has now taken his place in our hearts as being one of America's Best. Joined with like soldiers in a place of love, peace, and joy. All Glory belongs to you Lord but you said; "Honor is due where Honor is due". Today as we honor Frank by remembering him and his sacrifice for Freedom! May you touch and comfort his loved ones this day and very day with the peace that passes all understanding. We humbly ask it, in Jesus Name. To his loved ones we say, it may seem all for naught seeing how the world is today, but Frank then, as soldiers of today, and all future soldiers, will continue to assure our freedom remains alive, and the hope alive for the many oppressed of the world. Thanks for standing strong all these many years with just his memory. Know our hearts are joined with yours. May the peace of our Lord be with you always.

The "Flag of The United States of America" that we hail, is a symbol of one nation, under God, with Justice and liberty for all, still flies free over our Capital because of the men and women like our brother Frank. One must salute him not only because he died for what he believed to be right, "the belief that all should live free and live their life accordingly". But, we must also salute him for being a special person, one that God had ordained long ago to be a "Warrior" in a time of turbulence for our nation, and the world. His service in Vietnam was not the usual, no he went a step further and volunteered to serve in one of the most dangerous units of this war. One had to have guts of steel and be a team player to be in such a unit as "The Famed Long Range Patrol Rangers". A unit that pulled some of the most dangerous patrols in the history of the army. This was because they work deep inside of enemy held territory with a team of 4 men. This is why the 75th rangers only took volunteer. Growing up in Athens Ohio, a town of about 50,000 residents or so, he was a young energetic kid that liked challenges. Perhaps this was what drew him to want to serve in a unit such as the 75th rangers. His life ended shortly after he became a ranger during a fire fight, against the North Vietnamese Regular Army. His actions truly represents his loyalty to his family, his nation, and the United States Army. Truly one of America's Best! This page will remain on the world wide web site of the proud 75th Rangers Regiment as long as there is an organization. He is also Honored on the Virtual Wall in Washington D.C. Frank we salute you for contributing the highest cost of war, the loosing of one's life. We your brothers of like spirit, still remember and love you.
