My prayers go out to the family and friends of Frank Yeahquo. Although I did not stay in touch with Frank after the prep school, I still feel honored to have known him, wrestled with him, and shared some laughs and good times with him. I am sure that his soul and spirit rest in peace. Frank we were honored to share a part of the jouney of life with you!

Over Thanksgiving, I had the honor of saluting Frankie. Sadly, it appears his wife has also passed away this past summer. His grave is about an hour from Altus AFB. RIP, Frankie and Alice.

Frankie -
Your gift to us was in your spirit - quiet, solid, steadfast, never fearing. One helluva a life-long lesson for all of us Preppers.
God Speed, Frankie.
Please hold the door open for your Classmates, Sir. Frankie, we look forward to seeing you in Eternity.

Frankie,
I remember when Captain Baughman drafted you into wrestling with no notice. You did great.
May you rest in peace.
