I had the pleasure of knowing Frank since 2014. When I met Frank, the first thing I noticed was his beautiful smile. We had lots of adventures together . He taught me how to fish, which I so enjoyed. We took several fun road trips searching for boat motors. I have many great memories of our time together. I truly loved him. So sorry his life ended so soon.

Frank was our neighbor for many many years, we always knew when Frank was home because of his boat motors going all day. We will surely miss him. Rest in peace.

Shocked and saddened to be hearing of this. Matt, as I knew him, was one of a kind and I enjoyed very much, being around him. When I first met him, it was to build an outboard motor, I was SO impressed with his shop! I have to this very day never seen one so well kept and CLEAN! I knew I had found the right man! It wasn't the last motor he built for me ... as a matter of fact, I still run one of his builds!! Deepest sympathy to his family and friends ... RIP, old friend.
