Frank,
It saddened me to find out Frank had passed away. Although we are family my great grandmother and your grandmother were sisters—I am the granddaughter of Elmer J. Vernald Sr, I really didn't get to know your father until 2003 when I was researching our family genealogy and visited him and your mom in Woodstock. Of course, I recognized your Dad immediately from all those gatherings my grandfather had when I was a kid, but it was so nice to sit down and talk to him about family my grandfather has been gone since 1984. Frank was a wonderful man with great stories and I always looked forward to his letters and cards. I will miss him a lot. My deepest condolences to you and all the family.
Sincerely,
Tamara Kennedy
