This was played at the services on tv's in the outer rooms where we put up photos (5 large boards) .

I cry every time I watch it. How blessed I was to spend the past 35 years with this man.

What beautiful photographs. I love the one of the two of you dancing.

The video gives such a clear sense of his personality and spirit. He will clearly be missed by many. :grouphug;

That was beautiful.  You could see the love and pride in his eyes when the two of you danced. You were his Princess.

Diane, that was really beautiful. You can see by Franks smile that he had a real zest for life and it looks like he had a good one. This video will be something to hold onto when you are feeling lonely. I am glad you two had such a wonderful life together and sad that he is gone.

How is it possible to shed tears for a man I've never met and for a woman to whom I've spoken only over a computer?

What an incredibly handsome man your Frank was, and what a lovely family.  You have been so very lucky, and I'm so happy that you have such wonderful memories of such a special man.  Thank you so much for allowing us to view this video.  You've honoured us.
