program of redirecting lives of our young. Frank has trav-
eled thousands of miles in his position with the FSYR and is now taking time to enjoy his
golden years with wife Toni and travel is in their plans. Frank, who has a heart of gold, a
rare sense of humor, an amazing outlook on life as well as a love of living, will still do some
