HAPPY BIRTHDAY BROTHER IN LAW..
FRANK, WORDS CANNOT EXPRESS HOW MUCH WE MISS YOU...
We thought of you with love today,
but that is nothing new.
We thought about you yesterday,
and the days before that too....
We think of you in silence,
We often speak your name.
Now all we have is memories,
And your picture in a frame..
Your memory is our keepsake,
With which we'll never part.
GOD has you in his keeping,
We have you in our Heart....
LOVE YOUR SIS IN LAW,

Frank you and Chuck and I were so close for so many years, we went to high school together, you and Chuck worked at Tasty Chick and you were the best man at our wedding. When our boys were born you became "Uncle Frank" to them. The years have passed and although we did not see each other much you were always still concidered a good friend and Uncle to the boys. We were all shocked and saddened by your sudden passing. We will miss you dearly rest peacefully old friend. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Devin, Mr. and Mrs. Dresner, Amy and Ree for their loss.

I cannot begin to tell you, how much you were missed this Thanksgiving holiday!!! The memories you left behind, does help ease a lot of the saddness!

To: Amy, and Mr. and Mrs. Dresner
I was so sad and shocked to hear of Frank passing away. We always will remember him in the neighborhood visiting. I just wrote to someone last week saying neighborhoods are not the same now-a-days, not the way we remember them. Of course always seeing him waving with the Smith's. We will remember him at the old restaurant, Tasty Chick, behind the scenes as well. Our parents as well send their condolences to you and your family. If there is anything we can do to help, you know you can pick up the phone and call.

The world needs more people like Frank Dresner. We were lucky to have known him when he worked at Maple Street School and are still in shock at his passing. He helped out so many people and was always willing to lend a hand. He had such a wonderful sense of humor that made us smile and laugh. Our thoughts and prayers are with Frank's family and friends at this time. We will truly miss him but are so grateful that we knew him. Thanks Frank for all you did for us and for our school. We will always remember you.

My deepest sympathy goes out to Frank's family and friends. I had the pleasure of working at Maple Street School with Frank. Every day he would come into my room - so quietly - to sneak out a large rolling garbage can around 2:15. I knew my day was almost over and I knew he would be back to say hello after the students were dismissed. No matter what kind of day all of the teachers had, Frank would always make us smile. He was always willing to help in any way he could. I will miss him dearly. The teachers that worked with him and his fellow coworkers will remember him fondly. He was one in a million.

I was so completely shocked and saddened to hear of Frank's passing. Frank and I shared a very special time in our lives together many years ago and I have always had those memories tucked away deep inside my heart where he will live forever. He was a very special soul. I extend my deepest sympathys and Prayers to Mr. and Mrs. Dresner, Amy and those who loved him dearly. Always keep his memory alive by showing the grace and kindness that he extended to others...

Beloved Frank:
How I remember the first time our family met you. I was 6 years old and hiding behind Dad's Cadilac watching you coming over to meet a family that you had so much in common with. Now I must remember all the years spent together knowing that God brought you too our family for a very special reason. It is so colorfully clear, I just hope you can rest in peace now, and stop worrying about where and who you belonged, you lived it and we all love you very much Frank! Dad must be so happy right now. See you in a better place...
Love Wanda (WAS)
