Speaking with Frank's daughter today ... Here is the latest on Frank ...

"Things are sadly not good. Dad will not be able to recover this time and he is now in 24x7 care until he leaves us. I would appreciate if you could let his closer poet friends know. It's been a very sad time for all of us. He can have visitors but it is hit and miss if he will be able to talk to you let alone know who you are. On a good visit he recites poetry - on a bad one you can't even wake him."

My loving thoughts go to Frank and his family at this sad time.
The purpose of my life is to serve as a warning to others.

Frank is in my thoughts daily. I love that he still recites poetry on a good day.

Me too Heather - God love him - when the time comes he will doubtless be regailing the bloke upstairs with poetry and the smiles and the sharing will continue, but for now he continues to share that God given gift with us mere mortals. Whatever path he takes I hope the travelling is easy.

I may not always succeed in making a difference, but I will go to my grave knowing I at least tried.
