It is customary to thank those who give you great gifts, or offer guidance at difficult moments. In our sport, that often means thanking those who give advice, take us to new sites, or show us exit points.

Although I never met Frank, yesterday his spirit guided me through the most technically difficult moments of my young BASE career.

To his family and friends, know that Frank's spirit continues to touch people who never had the privilege of knowing him.

To Frank, thanks for the jumps. I owe you more than I can ever repay.

Thank you, Frank Gambalie.
