I didn’t know **Frank** that well as a poster, but he once wrote a nice reply to a post I made. I remember seeing a thread he made a few months ago saying that he was ill. I had meant to write a few words in it, but my visits here are sporadic and I don’t recall that I did so in the end. I was saddened to read this news today and I will not deny that I shed some tears.

RIP, **Frank**.

I knew has was ill, and I knew he hadn’t posted in a while but knowing he’s gone is another thing altogether. Rest peacefully **Frank**.
