In 1958, Frank and his young family moved from Crowley to Houston. Frank was employed as a machinist at FMC for many years and eventually went on to work at the University of Houston where he later retired.
Frank was an avid sports enthusiast. When his sons were younger, he would spend countless hours coaching their baseball teams and participating on the league board of directors. Frank was on the Harris County MUD 26 Board from 1999-2014. He took real pride in his neighborhood and in his role on the MUD Board. He loved trail rides, rodeos, camping, road trips, his family and friends. And, of course, everyone knows he loved his Cajun food.
