In lieu of flowers, our family is asking friends and loved ones to consider a donation to the CJD Foundation in memory of Frank. Frank had a way of lighting up any room he walked into — he was the center of attention wherever he went, not because he sought it, but because people were simply drawn to him. He loved bringing people together, and he was happiest when he was planning the next trip or gathering with as many family and friends as he could fit in. Anyone who traveled with Frank knows he was famous for his itineraries — meticulously planned, down to the last detail, and somehow never missing a single highlight along the way.
CJD (Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease) is a rare and devastating neurodegenerative condition, and the CJD Foundation supports families navigating this disease while funding research toward better understanding, diagnosis, and treatment. A gift in Frank's memory helps ensure other families facing this diagnosis have access to the same support and hope that carried ours through. Thank you for celebrating his life in this way.
