My friendship with Frank goes all the way back to our days in Germany, years before Australia became his new home.
Like so many of his friends, I was deeply shocked and saddened by his death, and I still find it hard to comprehend that this wonderful guy is no longer with us.
Frank was always there for others. He lived an extraordinary and incredibly varied life – and in the end, he died as he had lived: trying to help others. A true hero.
I’ve dedicated my latest saxophone track, “Song for Frank”, to my old best buddy „Petschi“. It’s my small way of saying goodbye and remembering a very special friend.
Frank was a professional photographer, and the cover photo is one he took of me many years ago at a concert in Hamburg.
My thoughts are with his family and with all his friends in Australia and around the world.
This one is for you, Petschi. You won’t be forgotten.
