Hon, on the eighth year of your traggic accident. We miss you so very much and hold you "Forever in Our Hearts".
The Broken Chain
We knew little that morning on "May 31, 1999" that God was going to call your name. In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same. It broke our hearts to lose you, you did not go alone; for part of us went with you, the day God called you home. You left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide; and though we cannot see you, you are always at our side. Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same; but as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.
Love wife, sons and daughter

My dearest Frank, On the eve of the 8th year of your traggic loss, I sit here reflecting back on the memories at the lake. It was the last weekend we had spent together as a family "Memorial weekend". Our sons had both been home, Geraldo home on leave from the Marines to spend the weekend with us, Gilbert also came home from Dallas. I still give thanks to our Heavenly Father for giving us this last time together as a family. It seems as if was just yesterday that we were sharing that weekend with family and friends, before you were to go off to your weeks in-service training and would be taken from us so suddenly that Memorial Day. Now eight years later and you are still missed so much. You would be so proud of our children. Gilbert is doing well and is still on the road working and touring in and outside the county. Geraldo being selected for Airforce Pilot Training and has one more year of college. Your "princessa" is now a junior in High School. They are beautiful children and I see so much of your ways in them. It is still difficult at times when there are those special milestones they reach in their lives and you're not here to share those times with, like Gilbert traveling around the world, Geraldo being accepted for pilot training and our princessa turning 16. But, knowing you're "Forever in Our Hearts" gives me the strength to go on and knowing that you were part of our lives leaving us with happy memories of our 25 years together. May you rest in peace and let the prepetual light shine upon you and all our fallen heroes.
Love, your wife
