Very saddened by this news. Always liked and got on with Frank. RIP mate.

One lasting memory of Frank was he was still working in 2006 and still made it to Bognor for the FA Cup replay (Yes he did complain about it as was in his nature) He did that and went to work the next day.

A true clubman who will be missed.

Terrible news. A lovely person. My little boy absolutely loved him. Condolences to everyone who reads this that was close to him.

This is absolutely dreadful news. When I first started going to HTFC Frank would always come and say hello and we would have a good chat. Loved buying my 50/50 tickets from him and seeing how he was doing. He was a thoroughly lovely man whose company I really enjoyed.

My sincere condolences to Frank's family and friends - especially Chris, Roger, Steve and the boys he attended matches with. RIP Frank. x

Awful news - I echo all the comments and tributes made by everyone above. Frank was such a lovely guy and a very welcoming presence inside the gate for fans with his smile and a bunch of 50/50 tickets in his hand. He'll be terribly missed at Top Field.

Sincere condolences to all close to him.

Such sad news.

I've known Frank since the Gillingham game in 1995. Such a warm, kind hearted man who gave so much time and energy to the club.
One of the group I have stood with for many years on the terraces and a good friend who was a regular at mum and dad's for tea.

RIP Frank.

Very sad news. Frank was a good guy who was always happy to have a chat even when I didn't buy a 5050 ticket. My condolences to his family and friends, including his "beer monster" friends.
