Dear Frances, Shane, Magda and Emma,
I and my family from afar send our heartfelt condolences for the passing of your beloved Frank.
The mind is very unique in recalling special moments in time. I recall over 34 years ago a day when I observed Frank happiness reflecting through his eyes and along with a happy small grind as he looked over his beloved wife Frances as they were enjoying their family dynamics, his father and mother inlaws along with his son great auntie and his sister in laws joyfully giggling has they surround with protection and love over his son Shane. I remember Frank taking a glance towards my way and acknowledging his happiness while being amoung them all. I recognized then that Frank would be a dedicated husband, father and caring member of the Pena family. I have no doubt that for many he also has become a long time genuine friend.
There is another special moment in time that I recall where he demonstrates gentle eyes along with a small caring grind it was on the very day of his father-in-law funeral -homecoming service.
I attempt to add a picture taken that very day it's not very clear but worth posting.
It's Frank Rice taking time to listen in total solace to the suffering during his father in-laws home coming service while gently affirms that they have his total attention as he affirms with a gentle smile that he understands their grief as well celebrates the testimonial by each person who told stories about his father-in-law relationships during their life time all the while he Frank had a long health journey to endure.
Seasons pass and much he would encounter due to his health battles yet he was a fighter, a determined soul who would have plans and do his best to lien on Christ Jesus.
You still be remembered and missed.
From a long life friend of our family,
R. Rosa and Mojicas
It’s a terrible thing to lose a friend or a loved one, but we have to believe and hope that Frank is enjoying his inheritance. One reserved in heaven for him by our Heavenly Father. If I have to choose one word to describe Frank, it would be kind. He always showed me kindness. Godspeed, my friend.
I have had the honor and the privilege to have known Frank for the last 38 years. From the first time meeting him I realized that he was a gentleman in every sense of the word. His kind and gentle spirit were gracefully balanced with integrity and a strong conviction of love and commitment to his family. His wit, intelligence and honesty attracted the young and old alike. He loved kids and had eternal patience and time to devote to them. His interests were diverse and included sports, music, history, cultures and languages. Frank will be greatly and deeply missed.
Frank I always admired your tenacity in facing your challenges in life… you were a true warrior in every sense of the word…You were a kind and wonderful man, Husband, Father, Son, Brother and Friend…Thanks for all the great memories and most of all for making me laugh… May You Rest in Eternal Peace 🙏
