Lynn (my daughter) & I will remember all the times with the Kletecka's, both happy & sad. We'll remember the last time recently before Frank became ill, we seen him smile & want to wake a lady up who was sleeping in the chair waiting for her bus-(reminded us of Ken). Frank was happy to see us as we were him. May he rest in peace.
