Dear Ana, Frank, Christina, and Family,
With our deepest condolences and heartfelt prayers to all of you for the loss of your beloved Husband, Father and Grandfather Frank.
I grew up with the memory of my older cousin Frank who had left his mark of a large “1956” in our barn to mark the year that he left Slovenija for Canada, which is still there today. He left his mark not only in Slovenija but also here in Canada with his family, friends, and the people who were fortunate enough to know him.
Frank, you will be greatly missed, fondly remembered, and may you Rest in Peace.
With Our Deepest Sympathy,
Cousin Joe Cimerman and Family

Sv. Kriz-Podbočje vasica pod Gorjanci. Na eni strani teče reka Krka na drugi strani pa se vzpenja hrib Starega gradu in Bočja. Tu se bohotijo prekrasni vinogradi. To je tvoja vas Frank.
Ko si se po dolgih letih vrnil domov, si potočil solze ob pogledu na mogočno cerkev, katere zvonik ti poje danes v slovo.
V otroških in mladih letih si se veliko zadrževal pri Rajerjevih in z atetom Drečkom sta si bila kot brata.
Ate Drečk in vnuk Lovro še vedno rada zaigrata na orgljice, ki si jih podaril oz. poslal iz Avstrije, ko si se odpravil v svet. S svojimi pridnimi slovenskimi rokami si si ustvaril dom in blaginjo na tujem. A bolj, ko so leta tekla, bolj te je srce vleklo nazaj.
Leta 2003 si se vrnil in svi skupaj smo odšli v akcijo. Pri Barbčevih na dvorušču smo postavili novo hišo. Kako si bil vesel, ko so nam fantje iz vasi priskočili na pomoč. Tudi vas sama je dobivala novo podobo. Sodelaval si pri obnovi vasi z novimi mostovi. Tudi tvoj, Barbčev most, daje pot novim stanovalcem tvoje prelepe hiše in parcele.
Zadnji obisk je bil že težak. Dvomljiv si bil, da se še kdaj vrneš. Frenk, lepo je bilo slišati, ko sta z atetom Drečkom obujala spomine. Veliko smo se smejali, jedli, popili kozarček vinčka, ki ti je bil tako dober.
Krževski zvon zvoni Barbču Frenku v slovo. Potok počasi teče skozi vas. Ljudje hitimo, leta hitijo, odhajamo eden za drugim… Ostajajo pa lepi spomini. Spomini nate Frenk. Večkrat zapojemo tvojo priljubljeno pesem “Lepa naša domovina…” in sedaj nas bo še bolj spominjala nate.
Želimo ti lep in miren počitek v zemlji na tujem. Tu v domače Sv.Križu pa te bomo nosili v srcu vsi, ki smo te imeli priložnost spoznati.
Hvala za lepe trenutke.

Ana and family..
Our deepest condolences. As we remember all those great times at Slovenian ‘farms’. We shared some great food and laughs as we spent time reminiscing as life passed. We all came with little to Canada and make it work with lots of sweat with some good times on the side. Frank, we will miss you, may you rest in peace. Marinka & Joze Gortnar and family
