Candle9 months have passed. All those times we spent with our beautiful daughter is alive in her heart. She misses you more and more every day. Every morning a cardinal greets us. We know its you watching over us !! Natalie was just talking about you getting stuck the other day. Boy she laughed and she laughed harder when we looked at the pictures of Jr pulling you out with the tractor. She wants to build a mud truck with blacky. We will see. Natalie has been looking at your pictures almost every day. She sleeps with your shirts. She treasures every stuffed animal you have gotten her. I told her the other day about the bb gun and monte carlo time. That bb shattered that window and how you bitched about buying a window and putting it in. We had lots of fun with that car. The hardest part about this all is ,we were starting to get along and bam your gone. I wish you were here. love you

Dad The Best Ever

This story is about my Dad. Here we go..Once my Dad and I were out with the 1985 (blackie) We were going for a little ride on the land we have. When we were on our way since it just rained , it was really muddy. Then Dad turned and said to me " time to have some fun". We got muddy that day . Once back home the truck was covered in mud !! It was awesome. That day Dad and I had lots of fun. I miss you Daddy and love you lots

CandleDear Daddy , Today Mom and I planted a tree in your honor. I miss you every day . I was in the garage looking through all your tools and wondering what we would be doing if you were here. I often sit in the truck and play the radio and laugh to myself .. We would hit a bump and the radio would shut off. I miss you lots . I love you !! Mom is taking really good care of me. She and I went through the pictures. Talk to you soon Daddy

Dear Daddy ,
I miss you so much !! I can't believe it's almost 2 months. I stop by Pomp's every now and then just to see the guys. I visit you often at the cemetery. We put another light out for you. Every day Mom tells me soemthing about you and She has lots of pictures of you throughout the house. She makes sure I see everyone. Whenever I see an Eagle I think of you. I miss you and love you. To love to cherish forever. Love you lots Natalie

W Wendi & Natalie on Aug 9, 2015

Its been one month and 8 days since you suddenly left us. Everyday we miss you more and more!! I do believe Natalie has your ability to collect things. Everything has a purpose. Looking back at the pictures ....we sure did have alot of good times. Your service was just the way you would have wanted. Brian ,Keegan,Shane,Josh,Jr and Mark. All seen you to your final resting spot. I know you would have done the same for them. Pomps just isnt the same without you !! I have so many questions that i dont have answers to right now .Until we meet again. I love you and miss you.

My heart goes out to Natalie who lost her Loving Father, may she find peace in knowing he is now in God's hands.

B Buss Farms Eland, WI on Jul 7, 2015

We are very sorry for the loss of Frank. He always was a pleasure to work around. He almost made us look forward to flat tires on equipment. Having him come to our farm was always a pleasure. It was always clear he had a big heart and was a good hearted guy. He will be greatly missed but never forgotten by all of us.

C Charles Jackson on Jul 7, 2015

CandleFrankie was a hard worker, whenever we stopped at Pomps he had a smile on his face and was anxious to help. We will miss him dearly.
