Sister Kathleen and sons ,
Brother Frank was a very humble man and an inspiration to me and my family. He displayed to me Christian love and was part of Gods plan to get me involved @ Pleasant Hill. He encouraged me to sing and become song leader there.Thank you for the encouragement and for always preaching Gods plan of salvation Brother Frank !
