No matter the profession Frank tried, his heart would always return to the sea. He always found a way of reminding everyone he could about the importance of protecting the environment.

Francisco, o Frank, como le llamaban tanto los amigos y la familia, siempre ha tenido un amor por el mar. Compartió su amor por el mar creando una escuela de buceo donde los viajeros podían venir de todas partes del mundo para maravillarse con la belleza debajo del mar. Frank no solo tuvo éxito en las aguas, sino que conquistó los cielos por un corto tiempo obteniendo su licencia de piloto, navegando por los mares del Caribe, saltando en el ring de boxeo para golpear unos cuantos oponentes y poniendo sus habilidades culinarias en uso en la cocción. No importaba la profesión que Frank intentara, su corazón siempre se regresaba al mar. Siempre encontraba una manera de recordar a todos los que podía sobre la importancia de proteger el medio ambiente. Fue un participante activo en la protección ecológica subacuática en Acapulco. Frank tenía muchos buenos recuerdos de bucear con sus hijos los domingos y bucear con amigos cuando era posible.
