Mes sinceres condoleances a son epouse France et enfants Marc-Andre et Isabelle et leur belle famille, amis et freres d'armes. Frank avait toujours un petit commentaire pour faire souritre les gens. J'ai travaille avec lui a Kabul en 2009, nous avons connecte immediatement. Il adorait joue au hockey ball meme devant l'ambassade et nous etions toujours sur la meme equipe (au detriment du gardien adverse (Mike) LoL. Repose en paix mon Frank et veille sur ta famille et tes proches. End of Mission Brother
