    So many sweet memories of this precious neighbor of ours. Frankie really enjoyed the countless conversations you had at the corner post of our back yards. Frankie has shared so many funny things. It was so sad how he and Helen’s hearts hurt for the loss of their son Kyle. And so many times when Helen would come down to get him cause he was gone way too long. You will definitely be missed but we know it’s a glorious time for you & you are completely healed. Prayers for all your family during this most difficult time. Love The Joines Family
