Frank is my hero who I shall introduce to my granddaughter. It is my hope she will become a Frank – a person excited by learning and a person that inspires others to learn.!

I also want to know what Frank did after high school was over and his adult life began. Love to see more article like this. Thank you. for making my day!

I met Frank upon his retirement from commercial fishing. If it were not for him, I would not have the commercial fishing operation that I do today. I already knew he is an incredible person. It’s wonderful to hear a story about him from his youth. Thank you for sharing, it’s been truly great to read.

I always smile when I see a “Kerrying On” email pop up. I’m amazed at your memory of detail – I wish I had that. And we’re all thankful that Frank influenced your love for academics and writing in particular!

Yes, they’re real–but often with names changed.
