In addition to his military service and career, Frank was an avid outdoorsman who cherished time spent fishing and hunting. These hobbies provided him joy and a means to bond with nature and loved ones especially his nephew Clifford Sewell who was his fishing partner.

Frank is survived by his sons, Cliff Langston and Robert Bradley; his grandchildren, Trammel Geiger and Chase Bradley; and his great-grandchildren, Avery, Blakely, Caydence, and Cove. He leaves behind a legacy of laughter, love, and strength.
