Hello. Sorry about the loss of your loved one. In the near future, there is going to come a time when their will be no more WARS or report of WARS. Man will be at PEACE with 1 another no matter where we live. This is not what God intended for mankind. But due to Adan and Eve sinning in the garden of Eden, this is where we are in a sinful state. Revelations 21:4 states Death will be no more, neither outcry nor pain. I hope this gives you and your family comfort at this time.

I just learned today, November 17, 2020, that Frank had passed away. Frank had assisted me on investigations in the Savannah/Brunswick area and me for him in Middle Georgia. I run Central GA Special Investigations here in Macon. My sincere condolences to each family member ( I met his wife Kristen once leaving work for him through her) on their loss. Although I did not know Frank well personally, his obit sounds like we had more in common than we knew. I'll miss his assistance going forward and thank him for it in the past. Rest in Peace Brother Frank!
