Death is so surreal. You go through each day not really giving much thought to the fact that someone close might not be here tomorrow or today. It's always such an overwhelming thing to grasp. My heart goes out to Danny and his family. I know how hard it has to be on them. Frank was such an amazing person. One of the most genuine guys you could ever meet. All he ever wanted was to see his family succeed. He was right there alongside my dad and all of us in Lunacy Driven every step of the way. He done everything he could to help us acheive our dreams. And he did nothing short of that. He was the guy that was so full of wisdom. I could sit for hours and listen to him carry on a conversation, because you knew that everything he had to say came from the heart and was absolutely true. Not only was he a father, but he was an amazing friend. He had the same relationship with Danny as I do with my dad. I couldn't imagine the thought of losing my father. I remember years ago after a show. Everyone else had gone elsewhere or was already exhausted from partying. Frank and I sat in the kitchen, just talking about life, how proud he was of his son, us, and all he wanted was to see his son reach his dreams and be the best he could be. That is one of the most memorable times of my life. Frank Dix, you and yours are truley in my prayers, and you will sincerely be missed. I hope you're having the time of your life up there and smiling down on us...We're going to do our best to make you proud! Love you man.
