Frank was always a gentleman, with sophistication, warmth and wit. He was a pleasure to work with, and approached his affairs with wisdom and patience. He always spoke with loving kindness of his family, and never failed to inquire about mine. We enjoyed trading travel stories, especially about adventures in Europe. His greeting was often, “This is THEE Frank Davis,” and his closing was always, “Until Then.”
Indeed, my Friend, Until Then.
“Beeb”, you were such a wonderful man.Rest in peace Beebo, we will surely miss you!”Until then.” Love you always!
I will always remember Frank shaking his head at the silly stuff his son (and my friend) Dennis used to do when we were kids. We went to many ballgames together and Frank and his family took me to the “Worlds Fair” in NYC , 1964! Thanks Frank, sorry I didnt get to see you before you moved on, one great guy!!
