Was stationed with Col Marra CSSD 29 Haiti, 24th MEU and Quantico. Very much respect. He was enlisted,WO and Officer. He was a leader by example. Motor Transport Officer. I remember his mother being at his retirement.
RIP Marine. Frank and I went through the Warrant Officer Course together back in ’82. Prayers to the family and know what a great loss this is.
Col Marra was a great man and will be missed by many. I had the pleasure of serving with him in MSG Bn and he was by far the best CO I ever had. Our heart felt prayers and condolences to his family.
Frank was a true gentleman.A mentor on and off active duty. Served with him in MTM CO and CSSD-33 in Okinawa, and MTM CO at Lejeune. Last saw him at his retirement in 2009; I will be there to send him off on 02 July..
Marines Marine. One of the best leaders I have ever served with. My condolences to your wonderful family. Sir, you made me a better man and Marine. Thank you. God Bless and Semper Fi.
This break my heart. During almost 27 years as a Marine, I served under no better officer. He always made time to look after Marines who needed it most, to include myself. I stay in the Corps because I wanted to be a Marine like him.
Frank was one of the first officers I met at 1st CEB when I was a 2ndLt and he was a WO. He was instrumental in my learning to be an effective Maintenance Management and Officer in general.
I miss the gentlemen.
RIP FRANK. THIS IS LEK YOUR OLD FRIEND FROM BANGKOK, THAILAND. LOVE YOU AND YOU WILL BE MISSED.
Frank, I could never thank you enough for all you’ve done for me. While I’m so sad that you’ve gone home to be with the Lord, I’m so thankful to have not only known you, but can call you a great friend. You are a special person always thinking about others. Thank you for your unwavering support and encouragement. You made a mark on the lives of many and you will never be forgotten. Love you my friend, Sheila
Frank, I will miss you big guy. Thank you for the confidence you had in me, your trust and leadership made me who I am today. RIP my brother, I will see you again.
Oh Frank I just learned of your passing. Marine you and me were running neck-to-neck through the ranks over the years. Even as former Warrants and LDOs we became regular unrestricted commanders and we both served on MSG duty, you in Bangkok and me in Nairobi. So until my next PCS rest at ease in the loving palms of our God🙏
