I also heard that he died (almost a year ago), and we talked a little at the
Port Canaveral convention that he had died from complications after surgery.
I had been to his home to buy shells about a month  before the surgery and
he had a very positive attitude about improving his general health and
mobility with the surgery. Then - I heard he died.  I noted recently that
there were some items on EBAY sold by Noreast (his old ebay id) so I don't
know whether his family has taken over the website, or what has happened to
ALL THOSE SHELLS he had!!  He was a fine person and spent time answering all
my beginner questions.  It thought maybe the Boston shell group had done
something to help the family with the shells.

Dear all,
Has anyone heard from Frank Walker recently? I have tried e-mailing him
twice, but I didn't get any response. A while back there was a rumor that
he had died, but I never saw anything else about it, which I find rather
unusual. His website (http://www.gemsfromthesea.com) is still up, and it
was last updated at Christmastime. I really don't know what happened to
him, so if anyone could help me find out, I would of course be grateful.

Thanks In Advance,
James
