Having received laicization afier a few years in the Catholic priesthood (1969), Frank continued his teaching career and married Carolyn in 1970, giving confirmation to the saying that “life begins at 40.” Family life on a fifty acre farm a short distance from town has been a top priority. It is a close-knit, happy family. Despite being busy, coming home provides a place for peace and reflection. The birth of each child has to rate at the top of all occurrences. The love, support, and intellectual stimulation of Carolyn is equally significant. Teaching successfully for 41 years to about 7,000 students has been pretty significant too.

Frank enjoyed every minute of his long teaching career. His volunteer experience involves a long list, many of them still ongoing: Christian Pre-Marriage Programs; Right to Life Leader Couple; 4-H Leader; PEI Annual Writing Awards (Chair); Fr. Adrien Arsenault Senior Arts Award (Chair); Board of Canadian Bible Society; Direct Charge Co—op Board (Sec’y); Search for Great Island Kids (Senior Judge); Director, Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada; Board of Directors, Confederation Centre of the Arts; Chair of PHI. Population Strategy Study; Chair of Royal Commission on Public Sector-government Labour relations; Sunday school teacher; and several others. Leisure time is for reading, writing, fishing, gardening, and listening to music. No time for playing bridge for 30 years. Too bad, Lennie, old partner.

Most Memorable time at St. Dunstan’s: (1) When, in freshman year and everyone was reading “Begone Satan”, Jim Ayers and George Cameron convinced every one that their room on 3rd Dalton was possessed by the devil. (2) The solemn and high burial ceremony for Frank Sigsworth’s Freshman Math. Book (he finally passed). The burial took place on the east comer of Memorial Hall. (3) The nocturnal calls by the nightwatchman, Jerome Blacquiere, and how we used to dress up in sheets to spook him. (4) Bun Callaghan’s war stories, even though he joined after the war was ended.

Hearing news from old classmates is a great idea. Although work, community involvement, and family commitments - as well as geographical distances - have kept us apart, a sense of collegiality has remained a constant. Those were the best of times and, only occasionally, the worst of times. The memories that linger, aside from the solidarity we had as classmates, are those of the dedication and self-sacrifice of our priest-teachers. Their influence was indelible and, we are sure, remains to this day.
