Frank Sheffield RIP
I received a phone call yesterday from Cheryl letting me know that Frank Sheffield passed away about 10 PM Saturday night. Frank had just turned 68. He had been in a nursing home near Columbus OH since suffering a stroke two years ago. There are currently no plans for a viewing but there may be a memorial service sometime in the future.
Frank and I met when we were teenagers. That was back in our street racing days. The night we met I beat his 64 Falcon with my 63 Galaxie. Later on Frank bought a new 68 Z28 Camaro. A few years later when I was teching at Ohio Valley, I got Frank a job working there. After I started working at NHRA events I brought Frank along and the rest is history.
Rest in peace my friend.
