"Our condolences and prayers are with you all.

"Ronnie and family, I was very sorry to hear of the loss of Uncle John Frank. we kids grew up hearing about some of things he and Dad got up to, most memorably the fire in the bedroom and the finger chopping incident. though I did not see him often, I have thought fondly of him over the years. My sympathies are with you as you struggle through this difficult time. our cousin, Velma

"Some of my favorite memories of my Uncle John were the summers I spent with him & his family on their farm. He was a wonderful, kind and caring soul, and he will be missed by many.

"Love, admiration and respect. Thank you so much to Ronnie and his wife for bringing Uncle John Frank to see my dad, his brother Sam, when he was diagonsied as terminal. Those visits meant the world to my dad, the day he departed this earth, he was still talking about them. My symphathies and repect to you all for the loss of a wonderful man.

"He was a great man, and I will miss him dearly. I love you grandpa!!

"My deepest sympathies go to Ronnie, Elisha and family. John was such a great, beloved uncle and I will miss him and his funny stories so much. I have so many memories of him from my childhood; one of my favorites is him showing me all the different colored eggs his hens would lay on his farm. As a young girl I was simply in awe and delighted.He was a special man, and will be terribly missed.With deepest love and sympathy,Shelley
