What a privilege it has been to know Frank and family for so many years. To have traveled with him and walked the streets of old Jerusalem together will soon be eclipsed by walking together in the ‘new’ Jerusalem with all Frank’s friends and family with whom he has Faithfully labored and prayed for the Holy Spirit to guide their souls to the saving Love of Jesus..
Do not weep… he is safe in the promise for each of you, family and friends to join him in Heaven👍🙌
Let Jesus fill the void of our resting friend, Frank❤️

Oh Mrs. Sheffield!! I am so sorry to hear of your loss! We will always have fond memories of him when the girls were in your class…especially the tea party at your lovely home. One of my favorite pics is if Mr. Sheffield sitting on your front steps with my kiddos and other gathered around him and sitting in his lap! What a kind, gentle spirit he had. Sending you big hugs from the Hernandez’s! Love you, Lori

Carol Dalton says
Frank’s kindness, thoughtfulness and genuineness were given generously to all. But for Frank he would never have thought any of those were a big deal because that was just the right thing to do and that’s how he lived. Frank loved God and his life radiated that love to all who were privileged to be part of his life. I was one of the privileged ❤️
My love and prayers Donna, Denise and Ryan.
I will miss that million dollar smile.
Carol

Sandy & Bob says
We were privileged and blessed to have Frank as part of our family. Frank was a loving, supportive, protective husband to my sister, Donna. They had a wonderful marriage sent from heaven.
Frank will be dearly missed. The years of memories and love will remain in our hearts forever. I know he will have many stars in his crown for all of his good deeds and the faithfulness he had for God.
Our prayers are for us all to reunite in heaven with our loved ones. Like Frank said, “Please join me in heaven…there just wasn’t enough time here.”
Donna, Denise, Ryan, Imelda and Issy, we are remembering all of you in our prayers.
With Our Love & Deepest Sympathy,
Sandy & Bob

Denise my prayers are with you and your family at this time. Allow the memories of your father to remain close to heart. May God comfort and give you all peace and strength during this difficult time. Your FDOH Polk Family loves you dearly.
Lee Liwag says
My heartfelt and sincere condolence to Donna and the whole family. Frank and Donna have been wonderful friends and fellow SS members in Dr. Gordon’s and Marty’s class. After I lost my husband Mel, in 2009, returning to the SS class without him was very painful. Frank was one of the first who made me feel welcomed and comforted. I cannot forget how he wrapped me in a brotherly embrace and without saying much let me know how much he cared and that I am loved. I offer the same loving and caring embrace to Donna and the whole Sheffield family. God bless, Lee Liwag
