I have communicated with Frank through an app on my iphone. I have not seen Frank, but when I have asked him to do something off the wall, and unexpected, it happened…every time I’ve asked, it happened. And it was on two separate occasions, about 6 months from each other.
I stopped there when I was going home from vacation a couple years ago. I thought I was going crazy. I saw a man walk around at different places on the area. Whenever I’d walk past a certain place there was a noise that I guess only I could hear. I’m guessing that this was all just Frank hopefully.
Went with my family. Was wondering about by myself while the others were looking at something else. I heard a voice tell me “Look over there” I turned around I was all alone in the room but came face to face with a picture of my grandfather who worked for the PPR since 1942.
