He was the NPA Director for District Three, Rare Breed Club President and my close friend. He leaves behind his wife Mary Jane, 2 children and 2 grand children. Jim was a big hearted man with a kind soul. He was true to his friends and honest with all others. He loved his family. He loved his Church. He loved his friends and loved his birds. On his 60th Birthday was had a lawn show at his home near Columbus Ohio. Sixty people came to wish him well on that warm summer day.

Big Frank passed away this January with his family at the bedside. He is survived by his Wife Linda, Daughter Danielle, Son-in-law Jason and Grand Daughter Brooklyn. Frank was a great friend and we traveled the States together going to pigeon shows. He had a wealth of knowledge about pigeons which he often felt free to share. Frank had 28 breeds of pigeons at the time of his death many of which were Rare Breeds. He enjoyed his style of selective breeding and tried to re-create the breeds as he remembered them from his childhood. Frank was full of laughter, loved his family, loved his birds and bacon. We will all miss his good humor.
