Sorry to hear of your loss, Frank. From the obituary it looks like he was active in the community. He was one of your role models, huh? This is a sad time, but I've found a good way to deal with the sorrow is to take comfort by talking with others about your memories of happier times.
Frank, I'm real sorry about your Uncle dude. You and your family were struggling with his convalesence for quite a while. I am a phone call away, and you'll be in my prayers this night.
