Frank was always a great guy. He lived as a hero and died as a hero. I know that his loss is felt not only locally, but across the nation. To his family: I am sorry for your loss and you will be in my prayers. I will never forget him.

Thank you, Frank, for always making my job easier. I'll miss hearing your voice when you called in your reports. I'll miss your easy smile and gentle nature. You are indeed a Hero, and we at the Floyd County Sheriff's Department, will never forget you, or the contributions and sacrifices you made for the job you loved. Always will you be in our hearts, and my most sincere personal thoughts go out to Tara and that precious little girl whose picture you loved showing around. Farewell, Frank. You're one heck of a guy!

Oh how we love you Frank, and oh how we'll miss you. You were a stellar human being and we thought the world of you. We know you'll soar like an eagle over your daughter and her life, guiding her through the world as only you could. We will never forget you, and your memory will live on in the many stories and pictures we will share as we try to figure out how to live in a world without you there.
