While serving this country, he traveled extensively throughout the United States and overseas. Upon completion of his military tour, Frank moved to New York City for about two years.Frank was adventurous and enjoyed spending time with his brothers and their mutual friends. He had a passion for working on cars and adored “The Mustang” he owned. He also loved to entertain family and friends showing off his superb culinary skills.Then Frank moved to Los Angeles, California where he resided for 18 years.

I would like to extend my condolence to Frank Batchelor\’s Family. I learned of his passing through a friend and classmate, Turner Taylor from Pattillo High School of Tarboro,Noth Carolina where we attended until Frank\’s family move away while we were in high school. We reconnected via telephone years later and talked about family, jobs and friends and what was going on in each other\’s lives. He was very proud of his son and our conversation\’s were a lot about his young son. I will miss Frank and hope his family find comfort in remembering his vibrant personality and his love of his family. May God bless Frank and his family.

To the family and friends of Frank Batchelor, Jr., please accept my condolence. At a time like this, words are hard to find. This is when we turn to God’s word the Bible for comfort. In the Bible, death is likened to a sleep. John 11:11-14 Just like a person can be awakened from a sleep, God promises that, by means of his Son, he will resurrect all those who have fallen asleep in death. John 5:28,29 That promise includes Frank. We know God cannot lie Numbers 23:19 so we can put our faith and confidence in his word. To learn more about why we die and what happens when we die, write to Bethel, 25 Columbia Heights, Brooklyn, NY 11201 for a
“free” copy of the “Teach” book and read chapter 7.
