I was stunned to get this news. I only met Frank & Jackie once last year when they drove from Houston to Dallas in the snow to check out the remains of a certain recently closed tiki establishment. They literally took home the front doors as I recall. He also brought along a container filled with menus, matchbooks, swizzles, postcards...I made some great trades that day!

He was a true collector dedicated to the preservation of tiki...and also a super nice guy. Wish I’d had an opportunity to know him better. Our best to Jackie & family.
