Hi Dad,
This is year number five and ending the year of the Tiger. It's nicer now that Julie Mom and I can visit together without being as afraid to get each other sick. Julie is at her new job and seems like it is going well. I won something at work this year. And started making banana bread all the time at home, randomly. Maybe you'd like it? We are hoping to go to Europe for the first time in...wow seven years? And hopefully we can go to Taiwan and Japan next year. Trips aren't the same without you. We all miss your funny jokes and musical slideshows. Keep smiling from above!
Love, Mom Dan and Julie

Hi Dad,
Mom and I made our first attempt at gardening at the family plot. We hope you like how it looks. The grass is green, and now there are nice flowers to go with the headstone.

Frank was a person very caring for other people. Even though he was very ill in his last few months, he still concerned about my knee and my cataracts surgery. I am very glad to have Frank as my brother-in-law.

Hi Dad,
This father's day was of course very different but Mom Julie and I have you on our minds always. Mom and I went to NY and stayed with Julie for 4 days. Mom's last time in NY was Julie's Marathon! Julie took us to Prospect Park for a free NYPhil concert, where there were amazing fireworks afterwards. And then we went to Nobu the next night. Monday mom showed me Longwood Gardens, which I couldn't really remember before since I was little when you took me. It was really amazing, and I understand why you loved that place. Maybe we'll go for Christmas. Life is not as fun without you but don't worry we are still finding ways to enjoy ourselves!

Message from Marek Kotelba

It is with great sadness and disbelief that I have learned about Frank’s passing. Please accept my and my family’s deepest sympathies and sincerest condolences on your loss.

Frank hired me at Cascade at the end of 1995, and I worked on his team until his exit from Lucent at the beginning of 2000. Frank was not only a very accomplished engineer and manager, but also a great mentor and friend. His signature gracious “firm but soft” management style positively impacted the careers of many of his co-workers, including my own.

Later in 2009, Frank also advised me on my new venture in the smart grid space. I very much appreciated his thoughtful technical and business guidance.

We will all miss Frank greatly.

Sincerely,
Marek Kotelba

Dear 錦鳯,

上主日在教會得知世煌弟兄安息主懐了. 我們心中十分難過和不捨. 然而我們深信與主同在好得無比. 你一路愛心陪同世煌是我們姊妹的好榜樣. 過去我們在教會Nursery Room 同工多年, 世煌兄都會在崇拜後來育嬰室跟你相會, 接你一起離去, 讓我們親眼見証了世煌與你的夫妻深情, 好不羨慕. 他的瀟灑熱情的形象永存我們心中. 祈主的話語,安慰,扶持, 與錦鳯及孩子們永在.

主內卓然同德敬祈

Message from May Hsu

世煌夫婦是我很特殊的好友 ，他們曾在我很徬徨無助的時候、把我帶進他們溫暖的家、參加查經班、學習如何當一個討神喜悅的基督徒；他們夫婦是我的好榜樣、那段在他們家查經聚會的日子是那麼的美好！
2008年底、要離開麻省時、我淚流滿面，我們多麼依依不捨，不過我深信我們還有很多重逢的機會；沒想到 神這麼快就把他接去了；此時、再多的言語也無法表達我心中的難過與不捨！
令人安慰的是～ 神必派遣他為天使、永遠守護着他深愛的家人與親朋好友！

We are indeed saddened to hear of Frank’s passing. Stephen and I have such fond memories of him when we were together. Since we were both kidney donors and recipients, we feel there is a special bond between us! Frank was always so generous with his time and his valuable advice when we were in the process of preparing for the surgeries!

May God be with you at this time. May His love, comfort and peace be your guide！

Message from Jen Man

Dear Jennifer,

Thank you for sharing Frank's beautiful and heart touching memorial services with us​. ​He is resting in the best place with our heavenly Father, a place is much much better than where we are now!​ And that is the place we all are looking forward to be one day; no more sorrow, no more tears, no more suffering, but peace, joy, praising, laughers,. . .

After watching ​these videos, there are so many wonderful memories ​of Frank and you​ c​a​me to ​my mind. Truly, Frank had a ​wonderful life that is worthy to celebrate with ​great ​joy! ​His familiar smile on that picture was his hallmark! We are very blessed to have friend like Frank. I remember that in our church Fellowship group during those years in Boston, he was the role model of what a good husband should be, and what a good father should be, most of all, what a good Christian should be; he was our good neighbor for sure! We will miss his humor, he always made us laugh and smile, yes, like his friend said in the memorial; even he was retelling an old joke, we still couldn't stop laughing. He was a joy to be with.

I remember the short visit with him last August, even he was in uncomfortable physical condition from his treatment the day before, but he still greeted us with big smile and joy! That was Frank!

​Frank and you must be so proud of your wonderful and loving children, Julie and Daniel, from their sharing, we know that Frank and them were connected and stringed together with deep deep love. What a blessed father/daughter/son relationship that all of us desire to have.
​
Jennifer, you and Frank inspired us in many ways during those years. We are very grateful! Please take good care of yourself, you are in our prayers. Hopefully we will meet again soon, please stay in touch.


Love and prayers,
Jenny and Ming

We wish that we would have known Frank much earlier because he is an extraordinary individual. Frank is a man of strong faith and with finest human qualities: Strong Christian faith, highly intelligent, multi-talented, great humor, very sharing and extremely personable. Frank is a loving family man and a truth-worthy friend. Frank accomplished a lot in life on earth. Now, Frank is with God in haven and enjoying everything that God has promised. Frank will be missed and we will see him again in haven.

It’s an honor to know Frank for 30+ years. Frank had a successful career, but his deep Christian faith leaded him to live as kind and loving person.
He had very good sense of humor.Anywhere as long as he was there. We guarantee had good time. He researched local scenic areas-pond s, garden...took us out for outing, with his humor and all sort of ideas（花様多,點子多),Plus his photo after outing.We had good time and looking forward to next one.
He even taught us how to do investment to maximize our retirement with conservative approach .
He is a good friend , good teacher, a role model to us.
Today and always, his loving memories will live with us . Our deepest sympathy.

Faith, Hope, and Love are not easy tasks to put into words. But, Frank was all of these. He loved life completely and he lived it intensely. He left to the people who knew him a spirit to exemplify life - a spirit of Faith in God, Hope for life, and truly inspiring Love to his family, his friends, and his neighbors.

Dear Jennifer,

We are very saddened to hear your loss. Though we did not have a chance to get to know you better in the past years, I've always had the most respect for you and your husband. I’ve come to know your extraordinatry love story from reading one of Frank’s writing published in CBCGB’S Pulse Magazine. Your kindred love for each other was endearingly memorable. The donation of your kidney to him when he needed one was legendary. It is one of the most authentic true love, love in actions, not just words, that this world do not hear or see much anymore.

We count ourselves blessed and honored, just knowing such couple lived among us! May the knowledge of knowing that he is with the source of that love, our Heavenly Father, bring solace to you and your family during this difficult time.

Respectfully Yours,
Yuander & Anne

My condolences to the entire Chen family. Frank was a great boss and mentor to me, and his passing fills me both sadness at his loss, and gratitude for having known him. These are some memories of him.

I had the privilege of working for Frank first at Cascade/Ascend/Lucent and then Airvana. He was incredibly hard working and driven, but he never let that drive get in the way of his principles: he was incredibly warm and kind, and cared deeply for members of his "work family". He took his role as leader seriously, and provided direction and advice willingly, but at the same time was always open to new ideas. I have many fond memories of brainstorming with him, especially when we were trying to we were trying to win new customers (like Lucent or Ericsson) or keep existing ones (like Nortel) happy. Or at least not too mad.

One of the traditions we had at Airvana was a "quote of the year" contest, in which clever sayings people made over the year were nominated and then voted upon. Frank invariably won, and I think we eventually stop running them was because the winner was a foregone conclusion. Two of his more nortorious quotes were "If you don't squash the bug, the bug will squash you" and "QA needs to stop testing, they're finding too many bugs". These statement may seem at odds with each other, but making a start-up succeed is finding the right balance between building a quality product, but not waiting until it was "perfect", because you had to get it out the door. And Frank understood the balancing act better than anyone.

I wish I had kept in better touch with Frank after he retired, but we continued to exchange holiday cards over the years - his with stories of his latest travels, mine with photos of my growing daughter. A daughter who remembers Frank as that really kind man that brought her little presents from China.

Again my condolencesto the entire Chen family. Frank is surely in heaven now. Looking down on us, guiding us, and playing the occasional game of golf.

I will always remember Frank for his hard work, his knowledge of many things, his cheerful nature and his wonderful sense of humor. Frank had the gift of conversation and story telling and he used it to inspire and lead our Good Neighbors Group in activities that helped bind our friendship together. Frank played a big part in the development of the Good Neighbors Group and his spirit will always live on in our group.

Frank was not only a good neighbor but also a close friend. I will miss his presence in my life but I know that he is now in Heaven with God where there is no more suffering and no more pain. I know that we will see each other again one day when we meet in Heaven.

Rest in peace Frank.

My family and I have been living overseas for the past 5 years. It's a rare treat for us to go back to the States. When we do go back, we try to make every moment count!
Last summer, we had the opportunity to make a trip to Boston and visit Uncle Frank and Aunty Jennifer. My kids had such a wonderful time with Uncle and Aunty.
It's been over 6 months since we last visited – but my 8 year old son, Luke, still remembers the Easter Golf ball Hunt with Uncle Frank... he still remembers Uncle Frank's helicopter drone... he still remembers playing Legos with Uncle Frank.... My 4 year old daughter, Malia, still remembers “playing doctor” with Uncle Frank… she still remembers playing with Uncle Frank’s vacuum robot… she still remembers seeing a real lobster for the first time at Uncle Frank’s house...
It was Uncle Frank who created these wonderful, fun childhood memories for my children... so I want to thank Uncle Frank for giving my children this rare gift - the gift of a loving… positive… and happy childhood memories that they can cherish and remember forever.
Thank you Uncle Frank. You will always be in our hearts. You will always be remembered. God Bless.

In the four years, my daughter, Elizabeth, attended Wellesley College, Frank and Jennifer visited her at school often, took her out for a treat, encouraged her spirit life, took her and her friends to church. During holiday season, invited her, sometime her friends as well to their house for the Holiday Banquet. Even she started her career at Boston, Frank and Jennifer have continued to watch out for her; she had not felt home sick. Whenever, Bee Bee and I or my other daughter Julia , even our grandchildren, visited Frank and Jennifer, they always treat us with warm hospitality and generosity. Last year Frank even corresponded with our grandchildren 9 years old and below with strong loving words. When we visited Frank and Jennifer in April 2017, Frank even drove us to Ogunquit, Maine.

Bee Bee, I and Elizabeth made the recent visit September 2017, Frank took us to have apple pick for his favorite honey crisp apple.

Surpass his IT success, Frank's kindness and goodness will endure forever in our memory.

世煌弟兄愛主, 愛家和愛人是我們的榜様. 他開放他家為査經班地點多年直到換腎為止. 他為人慷慨, 幽默,風趣 , 和愛説笑話. 査經班有了他總是歡笑不斷. 有一次outing 他的笑話 ”新警察’和’孔子的補習班” 衆人都笑倒.笑聲最大是我内人. 我依稀記得這一件事.

世煌那美好的仗他已經打過了．當跑的路他已經跑盡了．所信的道他已經守住了．從此以後、有公義的冠冕為他存留.

世煌你安息了. 請你也凖備一些新的笑話好在我們在天堂再相見的時候講給我們聽.


Our brother Frank was a role model in the way he loved the Lord, his family and other people. He opened his home for Bible study for many years until his kidney transplant. He was generous, humorous, and loved to tell jokes. He always made the atmosphere of our bible study joyful and fruitful. Once during one of our group outings, he shared jokes about "New Police" and "Confucius tutoring class." Everyone laughed; my wife laughed the most. I still remember the whole thing fondly.

Frank has already fought the good fight. He has finished the race. He has kept his faith. Now in store for him is the crown of righteousness.

Frank, may you rest in peace, and please also prepare some more jokes to tell when we see each other again in heaven.

I will greatly miss my good friend. Frank hired me during the startup phase of Airvana. I have many fond memories of our time together in this early stage of the company. This included trips to California (Qualcomm) and an exciting drive outside Fargo ND in the middle of a blizzard.. while we toured cell sites to get a better idea of this new business. As a startup, there were many challenges. I quickly came to admire Frank as he took them on. Not only was he a great engineer, but his work effort and dedication was incredible. Despite the pressures, he was always extremely honest and respectful of others. He exhibited all the attributes the rest of us engineers aspire to. Over the years, our relationship evolved to being good friends. We were both of similar age and even both had daughters in Brooklyn, so lots to talk about. During this time, I came to admire Frank for his many other qualities. Frank had a great appreciation for those things in life many of us miss. For example during our long walks together, Frank would convey the beauty and excitement of his visit with Jennifer to DC where he saw the cheery blossoms in full bloom. In future years we actually measured our company's progress by pegging it to the Cherry Blossom spring event :). I heard about the beauty of their trip on an Alaska cruise, as well as trips to Florida. I also know Frank was extremely proud of his son Dan and daughter Julie which he spoke of frequently. I admired Frank as both an engineer and a person, and will greatly miss him as my friend.

Thank you so much for naming me when I was born. Thank you so much for supporting me when I started my study in Australia. Thank you so much for giving endless and unconditional love to your family.

I miss the time you travelled to Taiwan years ago when I was still a kid, a young adult.

Message from Shirley

It was really a blessing to know Frank. His faith made him a witness of God's love. Even in his toughest time, Frank never lost his faith. It actually made him closer to God. I remembered Jennifer told me, that before Daniel moved back, on every trip to treatment, one would drive and the other would read scripture and prayed out loud together. Frank talked about his love to Julie, Daniel and Jennifer. He loved his family every much and Jennifer was his protector and soulmate.
In Daniel 10:12 "Then he said to me, 'Fear not, Daniel, for from the first day that you set your heart to understand and humbled yourself before your God, your words have been heard, and I have come because of your words.'"
Frank was very successful, but he had a humble spirit. When his mother passed away, he was reminiscing with me about his family roots, his upbringing, and when his career hit the peak, how he stood firm from all temptation. it was remarkable, I suggested that he write an autobiography, but he humbly said that everyone has a similar story.
Before Thanksgiving, we walked out after the small group meeting. He had lost a lot of weight, but was very positive about the upcoming CT scan report, However, he added that what he had then was already an extra gift from God. I never thought that would be our last conversation.
Frank will be missed deeply by his family and friends, but I know he will be welcomed by the Creator in heaven.

I worked with Frank for about 5 years back in the 80's. As young engineers, we were both excited about the technology and the opportunity to learn and grow. Frank impressed colleagues with his self-motivation, hard working, and perseverance to see his assignments through. Frank was tapped to work on and lead pioneering communications and systems projects back then: 928 coaxial drivers, EThernet, and Unix for proprietary Mini-computers. his But what made my interaction with Frank most memorable was his humility, generosity, and good sense of humor.

Later on, I had the good fortune to work for Frank in different settings. What I have been thankful about Frank in this capacity was the trust, confidence he placed in people's motivation for betterment and subscription to common mission.

Frank would; oversee the progress and growth of subordinates with unassuming and caring attention and stood ready to give helping hand and guidance.

Frank was in Taiwan during that WCOM crisis. He would just call in every two hours to help assess the situation, give guidance and lend support and shoulder the pressure for his charges in the trench.

Thank you Frank. You will be remembered and missed by the many of us who had been lucky enough to work, engage and interact with you in different capacities and occasions.

My deepest condolences to your family and may you rest in peace with that generous and warm smile.

Dear Min, thanks for your beautiful tribute. We DEFINITELY remember the Taiwan crisis!! And his dedication :) I think it also was the first time we got to fly first class in an airplane, on China Airlines, when we flew back and landed in the blizzard in Boston!! Whew! That's dedication ;) It was stressful at the time, but now something we can smile at!

Message from Sheena Gu

I fortunately had an opportunity working under Frank's leadership at Cascade/Ascend/Lucent. Frank was a hard working leader of our engineer department, setting an example for all of us to follow. I learn a lot during working at Cascade to gain the experience and to be a good software engineer. Frank is sadly missed but his work ethic will always inspire us. Frank will be in our hearts and memories.

Dearest Dad,
What can I write to express what I feel? It has been one week since the world changed, and if I could give anything to have you back I would. You taught me generosity, respect and kindness; you showed me how to work hard and how to sacrifice; you gave everything of yourself for all of us. I miss your laugh, your smile, your hugs, you telling me to wear gloves when it's cold and hats when it's sunny, the sounds of the piano from downstairs and CNBC in the mornings, your buying me random clothes on sale, your impromptu golf advice; I will miss the apple picking, the foliage hunting, the family trips. Mom Julie and I will try to take care of each other as best we can. Things will never be the same without you here, but we will always have your life as our best example to follow. I miss you and love you forever, no matter where I am and no matter where you are.
Your son,
Dan
