Deepest sympathy and condolences to the Sloan family and friends.

My sincerest sympathies to all of the family. Your dad was an incredible man with a love for the land and all that nature had to offer. He was a diligent hard worker who had a vision and was able to make dreams become reality. Working with him on Council committees was always a learning experience. I will always remember his heartfelt laugh, genuine smile and sincerity. His love of horses and cattle will be part of his legacy, as well as his kindness for people of all walks in life. I will not be able to make it to the funeral as I am on a year end field trip with my class. Know that my prayers and support will be there in spirit as you say your farewells. May your memories of him be with you always and help you through your time of grief. Frank will be missed dearly. May he rest in peace.

Some of my best memories are of the late nights at the auction market, when Frank would come in and we’d grab a coffee. We’d sit down for a few minutes at the end of a long day to talk about the future of the cow business. We both believed in the industry! When cows were cheap, we believed we’d see them get to $2,000/head – and they did! Life would always be good with cows!
Frank worked hard because he was a hard worker. He worked hard for his family and for his community. He served tirelessly in politics and was always diplomatic, approachable and open-minded.
We will forever remember and miss Frank. Our sincere condolences to the Sloan Family.

I went to school and graduated with Frank. We lived 1/2 mile South and I have some good memories of Frank and the Sloan Family. Neighborhood baseball games or walking home from Ashmont in the late evening after sports games, but the one that readily comes to mind is our last days of high school. Playing hookey as exams were all done. We walked to Ashmont Beach along the railroad tracks and somebody actually had some dandelion wine, which we all polished off. Only to get there and get busted by Mr. Krankowsky and told to turn around and march ourselves right back.
Frank was an easy going, kind and incredibly smart man. I’ve been long gone from that area and we haven’t kept in touch but once in a while (most recently this past weekend) I come back for a visit and drive the old bus route, past our farm and then the Sloans’. I think of Frank and the rest of his siblings fondly. I’m so sorry for your loss. My sincerest condolences. RIP Frank.
