Frank Abela

Posted by: jon h on 17 November 2017

just a short note to say I have just read on Facebook that frank is deeply unwell with a brain tumour. His wife Judith posted the news overnight and it has come as a complete shock to many, myself included. 

A serious Naim user and, I believe, dealer for the company in Malta?

im sure you will join me in sending him our best wishes and thoughts.

Such sad news. I never had the pleasure to meet Frank, but always enjoyed his incredibly generous contribution to the forum, such knowledge and warmth.

Sending a huge thank you on behalf Naim for showing such passion and support over the years, it’s been our privilege. Our sincere condolences to family, friends, and our thoughts are with you.    

Franks voice will be missed by all.

Like many others, I only encountered Frank on the forum. He struck me as always being enthusiastic and helpful, and even where others disagreed with his views he remained gentlemanly. RIP.

Many condolences to his family and friends. Requiescat in pace.
