A sad loss of a dear friend. A better friend my father could not have wanted. Frank has been a part of our life for so many years,I can not remember him not being around. The fishing and then the frying with my father at the frying pan always cooking away with their catch of the day. The hunting trips - were they really hunting or just sitting around playing cards? but then there were the deer processing "parties" we werewitness'of so I guess they did hunt! I am sure more card playing and jaw jackin' went on then hunting. Imagine what they would have brought home had they actually worked hard at hunting! please remember our thoughts and prayers are with you. The memories are many and deeply engrained in our hearts and will be cherished forever!James Kiekhoefer Family
