Sharon told me that an infection developed at the amputation site and the doctors weren't able to get control over it. The infection eventually worked it's way to Frank's heart, causing his death.
As is our custom, Columbus Base will donate $100.00 to the USSVI Charitable Foundation in Frank's name.
