Frank "Bucky" F. Assunto, Jr.

Dear Laura Faye, My prayers are with you at this difficult time. I lost my husband nearly 4 years ago, and so I hold you in my heart through your grief.

My brother Donnie has reawakened my Welsh memories, and I remember you well. I watched the memory video. I wish I could have known Frank -- he looks like a wonderful person.

May God bless you and yours,
Dorothy Risinger Gremillion

WE LOVE YOU AND WILL BE PRAYING FOR YOU

Laura and family.

As a friend of Frank, his passing is a sad loss to me. I have known him since we started the first grade at Central School.
Throughout our twelve school years at Central and Lake Charles High School I admired the fact that Frank was well-liked by everyone. My last memory of Frank was at the recent LCHS reunion. He was having a great time leading cheers and I feel fortunate to have a photo of us taken together at the ceremony.

Dear Laura Faye and Family,
We were so saddened to hear of your husband's death. It's been years since we've seen you, but just wanted to let you know that you are in our hearts and prayers as you take this journey. May God Bless You All.
Susan and Charles McCown

Laura,

We love you!

Laura, Liz and I are stunned and saddened to read of Frank's passing. I'm sitting here at my computer literally unable to compose my thoughts. What can you say when one of your long time friends leaves us. I'm thankful we kept in touch over the years and, in particular, our more recent occasional stops in Beaumont to visit with you an Frank on our return trips from Houston following one of Liz's treatments. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family and we are with you in spirit even if we are unable to get to Beaumont. I always admired Frank from when we first met in Jr. High, his easy demeanor, loyal friendship, golfing prowess, ethical and spiritual standards, and family commitment. I know he will be sadly missed and greatly remembered. We Love You and Loved Frank. Judson and Liz

Laura, Trey, Ryan, Frank Sr., his sisters and all Bucky's wonderful family: My heart is heavy with yours at this unbelieveable loss. What wonderful memories I cherish of our years together. Bucky was the most gracious, compassionate and genuine gentleman. It is ironic that the thief that stole his life was his heart. His well-groomed physique wasn't what supported his heart, his heart supported his whole being. Bucky was truly an instrument used in life for God's glory as his heart was so full of others' cares and burdens - the worrier, we said. There leaves no doubt his name and spirit will carry on the same through the sons he taught by example and the wife he loved with his whole heart.

God will use his living testimony for His glory until He comes for the rest of us.

Know my prayers and love are with each of you through this great loss. Love you each, Pam and Tommy Rutledge

We offer our prayers for you all. May the Lord be with you in this sad hour.

We will always remember the great times we all had at McNeese and the Kappa Sig fraternity parties. Our group was really close and we miss those times. Frank always seemed to be the life of the party. Its hard to deal with losing friends.

Laura Fay and family, you will be in our thoughts and prayers.

I've been at Christie's since Monday night so am planning to be at Frank's service before heading to San Antonio Friday. It was such a shock to hear the news and since then I've continually thought of your family and the wonderful memories I have of our time spent together over the years and of the creative, very memorable Christmas cards your family sends, reflecting the love and closeness of your family. I know he will be sorely missed. But I've also envisioned how this devoted Christian man is now spending time with Jesus in heaven and know his mission on earth was a very fruitful one serving his Lord and making a big difference in so many lives. My thoughts and prayers will continue to be with your family.
