I had many memorable moments playing with Frank in Ithaca. He was a great musician and a friend.

I was lucky enough to get to know Frank as a (favorite) customer at Hickey's Music Center. He was still an amazing clarinetist well into his mid nineties! Frank was truly a gentleman and an amusing raconteur! You are missed Frank!

Frank taught me A LOT about performing jazz! I was fortunate to be his drummer in Tallahassee from 1988 to 1991 in a variety of combos, big band, New Orleans style, society gigs, you name it. He was the consummate professional and incredibly nice. I know he will be missed, but what a life of music!

Dr Brown was such a sweet talented man. He helped teach me sax. Just to see the way he felt the music had me in awe. He will be missed. Oh and to see his dental song he made up while I was in dental school was great too.

Dr frank was the pleasure of someone I met on my very first clinical rotation as a nursing student. I spent time listening to his music with him and Spotify. His kids were there everyday and showed me kindness. Dr frank spent a lot of time joking with me and we spent hours doing Christmas decorations. Only knew him for a short time. Very very sad to hear about this. RIP dr frank
