Ann & Family: Please accept our sincere condolences on the loss of your beloved Frank. I had hoped he had been on the mend and would return to his home after his last stay in hospital. I had never met Frank in person, but found him a very kind man in his gifts he would sometimes send and his loving emails to us.

I had been searching obituary notices in the UK as my dear friend in Wales had just lost her son, and sadly, I came across Frank's obituary.

May you find comfort in know his earthly battle is done and he is in a much better place with his wife Jean.
Love Bev & Jack (who is the eldest son of Mollie (nee Baldwin) Carter

On behalf of Sharing Life I would say like to send our love to all Frank's family. He is sorely missed at our coffee mornings. My lasting memory is of Frank sitting surrounded by children at one of our visits to school, proudly wearing his purple school jumper! Rest in peace, Frank. x
