Dear Marshall Family: I am very sorry to hear about the loss of Frank. In my 25 years of being involved with Oxnard Lemon, I always respected Frank. He was a classy and bright man. I hope that you will always have wonderful memories to cherish. Unfortunately I will not be able to make it to the funeral but my thoughts are with you all at this difficult time.

I grew up with Frank in Wheeler Canyon and he was always someone I looked up to. Sounds like he had a good life and a great family. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

I knew Frank growing up in Santa Paula. He and my brother went to school together. I never forgot that when my brother Ed died in 1975, Frank sent my mom 32 white roses - Ed's age. I later went into an agriculture career and occasionally read heard Frank's name in the industry. He was truly a fine man. My condolences on your loss.
