R.I.P. FRANK!!!
1945 - 2016​

Rest, our Salty Sailor, for now ye are home.​

No more to wander, no more to ponder,
no farther on earth to roam.​

Your bones groan no more, your heart no longer thirsts,
for sailing fair seas you will forever be,
sleeping aloft in our Lord's sweet berth.​

Gone from us you are, but never very far,
for in our minds and hearts you are, forever sailing home.​

Frank will be missed. He was a great asset to this forum. I've spent many memorable days on the water thanks to his knowledge of Chrysler engines. I patiently awaited his replies to many of my posts, he always had the right answer. My dad and I took a trip to his house one to troubleshoot my engine. I can still see his frustration over the fact that my motor wouldn't run due to some brand newv plugs that were faulty from the package. A story my dad and I told for a few years.

My condolences to his family. I'm sure the amount he will be missed by this forum will never match how much he meant to them.

I AM SO SORRY TO HEAR THIS. Frank was a great guy. He put a force motor on my boat for me .The motor is still running today. he went into bus with his buddy doin boat motor repairs in pheonixville PA. after he retired from the usda so it would keep him busy and make alittle extra to run his boat. Truelly will be missed for certain. He has helped sooo many people. After reading so much on here today i can see he helped alot of people on this forum also. I don't really come on here alot . Been to franks house many times and he was always cheerful and a happy guy.

Mod EDIT

Frank will be missed by many people .My condolences go ot to all the Acampora family
