To the Lomba family; I was saddened to learn of your father’s passing. I have known your dad since my childhood as he was friends with my father and aunts and uncles. I would see your dad exery Friday at the Hospital Trust Bank that I managed at University Heights where he would always have a conversation with me. I knew Frank Sr. by his nickname “Doc”. I would often see “Doc” driving his truck around the City making deliverise and I would always beep my horn,and wave, and he would always smile and wave back at me. I offer my sincere condolences to Frank ,Jr.as we were classmates at Hope High School. May your dad rest in eternal peace and paradise.
