[Rotary] Frank Engelhardt

[Heather Paulsen]

I share everyone's sadness regarding Frank's passing, and my thoughts and prayers are with Beverly and the whole family, as well as with those of you who were especially close with Frank. He had a wonderful presence and added much to the richness of our club. I feel blessed to have had the chance to know him.


With gratitude for the beauty of this life,

Heather

Dear Rotarians,

It is with great sadness that I learned of Frank’s passing. He was a man of many accomplishments, yet always the most humble and caring. He left the world a better place because of his service in all matters of life. We will miss his presence greatly.
Jerry, thank you for providing this thoughtful email to our club members and friends.

Sincerely,
Donna

Dear Rotarians:

Frank was the best example of humanity anyone could meet.  He was responsible for my joining Rotary and a key part of our confidence in continuing our efforts to establish a new life on the coast.  He was an incredible friend, mentor and neighbor.  I have trouble imagining what it must be like for Beverly as they were inseparable.

Tom and I will look for him walking over our hills surrounding our home forever.

I miss you all.

Fondly, Pam
