Frank had seven dear siblings, May Bruce, Helen Slaughter, Dennis Davidson, Wanda Davidson, Maggie Tidwell, Alvie Davidson and Judy Davidson.
Frank enjoyed many things in his life such as hunting, gardening, fishing, camping, chicken fighting but most of all spending time with his family, children and grandchildren.
