    Hey Frank,
    Doubt you'll ever read this, but I just wanted to say thank you. My grandfather used to sing just like you, and its so beautiful to feel like he is still here. Please never stop.
    Here's to you, Grandpa.
    I miss you every day.
    - Chris

    Dear Frank,
    Recently been dealing with debilitating anxiety and it's been changing my whole life. Everything seems slower, and it's frustrating, but I'm finding a lot of beauty in the things that used to move too fast for me to notice. I've heard this song for years, but never had it slow down enough where I really listened to the lyrics. The pace and the lyrics, and the understanding in your voice really connected. I've been afraid of changing, recently, but this song gives me peace. Thank you for your lovely music, and for touching so many people.
