I heard about Frank's passing from Bill Guarnere's family.... Very sad..

James Madio, who played Frank in Band of Brothers became a close friend of Frank; James attended the funeral.

Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.
