Yes i'm glad you mods felt it appropriate to make this a sticky, hopefully people will come here that knew him well and even new members will see that this is a tight knit group and we all care about one another. Thanks again mods!

It was very sad to have lost one of our own. Making it a sticky was an easy one. Thanks for suggesting it.

I think of Frank every day, and am so grateful that he was a friend as he made me feel like a drummers drummer. He is and always will be missed, but my life is better for having known him.

I don't know if I've said this, but it's a great honor to see a fallen member's profile still up for others to see instead of taking it down.

I think this is a good idea.

I thought his thread topics were always ones that were unique and sometimes taken for granted. His " Whats in your stickbag mate " thread was my favorite.

Its something everyone has and uses but what does everyone else keep in theirs. Very creative thinking.

Frank left us 3 months ago today.

I've been gone for a long time and missed alot. I longed to hear frank play his red ludwig drums. I feel he gave the most honest advice with years of knowledge behind it. I'm blown away with this news. RIP Frank!!!

Glad that you're back with us, rat! There are few days I don't think of what he brought to this forum, including his knowledge, professionalism, and love of drumming.

Peace, bro'!

Wow, it has been FAR too long since I last visited here at drum chat! Melissa told me about Franks going home last night and I have been returning to this thread all night reading everyones posts. I was stunned to hear this news, but what I have found here has been very warming to the heart. We should all strive to live in such a way as to have had such a positive impact on those who come into contact with us. That is probably one of the finest testaments as to the character of Frank. The man will be missed by more people than he would have ever believed possible. Include me among them.
