He is highly regarded by all for his knowledge, ethics, precision, all with wit, understated humour, understanding and a remarkable gentleness. By day, Frank was a respected Senior Municipal Lawyer for the City of Toronto, enjoying the challenges of real estate law, tax and technology. In his spare time, he pursued his passions including the marvels of technology, sound production and most importantly music, composition and song writing influenced by the classic rock, jazz and bluegrass greats. He was an accomplished musician on guitar and banjo, performing his richly intricate, ever evolving pieces nightly in our living room. He was patient, kind, artistic, a wordsmith, a born teacher, mentor, romantic, wonderful friend and willing enthusiast of life, demanding perfection in all he turned his brilliant mind to, raising the bar for all left in his wake. For several years now, he had struggled with his rare medical outcome resulting in debilitating low blood pressure which coloured his every decision and move.
