Thinking of Frank, brings back many happy memories of the holidays we all had at the Alexandra Holiday Park and Frank's involvement with the Cabin Owners Association many years ago.

Dear Forde family. My deepest condolences on Frank´s passing. Throughout my 33 years of professional association with Frank, there was never a dull moment! Frank brought in lots of humour, laughs and wisdom at each of his interactions with me. Franks wisdom in most matters was inspiring and motivating. I am grateful and feel privileged for his friendship with me over the years. Rest in peace
