I am sad to hear of his passing. It just seems unbelievable.

Re: R.I.P. Frank McKnight - You Will Be Missed
 

Folks, I suggest we take up some collection for a Mach 1 Registry group condolence to family members. Please indicate if you would be interested in donating.

I will provide more information as I hear it.

Very sad for sure. Prayers going out to his family. Count me in on donation. God bless and keep you Frankie.

For those of you who don't know Frank, he was originally listed by Dave Wagner as a co-founder of the Mach 1 Registry, mostly because of his intense enthusiasm for the then "new" Mach 1 and Mustangs in general. His personality was distinctive, in spite of the physical challenges he faced and most recently, his bout with cancer.

He was equally, if not more, enthusiastic about his association with Hooters Restaurants, where he was generally seen in the company of the waitresses. Many who knew him joked that he had stock in the company.

Just a sad loss...

He will be missed by many... it is very sad to hear of his passing. He had a great attitude and enthusiasm for Mustangs. Of those that never met him or knew the challenges he faced in life have surely missed out on a wonderful and genuine person.

My heart is heavy from the news this afternoon of the loss of Frank McKnight .


Frank, You were one of a kind.
You will be missed my friend.
Thank you for making me smile so many countless times over the years!
I'm truly sorry that I was not able to come and see you this past month.
I guess it was for the better though. I can remember you as when I first met you with that devilish grin and smiling face.

I'm sure glad to have known you Frank.

Re: R.I.P. Frank McKnight - You Will Be Missed
 

Wow...that's truly sad news. I never had the opportunity to meet Frank, but he has been a huge part of this site since I first joined.

Count me in as well.

Re: R.I.P. Frank McKnight - You Will Be Missed
 

I am stunned and saddened deeply by this news. I'm certianly in on whatever we can do. He was absolutely one of the most notable people here and oen that once you met him, you were glad you did. You didn't forget him, and his posts of photos of himself with Hooters girls in the hottie thread were somethign to look forward to.

Godspeed Frank.

From a posting by one of the people who had been in contact with family -

"I have been in contact w/ Frank's sister - there will not be a memorial service at this time - they are contemplating having a Memorial Car Show in the future with proceeds to be given to American Cancer Society. In the meantime, my suggestion to all of Frank's friends is to take a cruise in your Mustang, go to a car show, stop at Hooters have some wings,and root for the Steelers sometime during football season. Embrace life, smile like Frankie, and say a prayer for him and his family. RIP Frankie."

Re: R.I.P. Frank McKnight - You Will Be Missed
 

My suggestion for any donation would be to perhaps have a donation to the American Cancer Society.

Re: R.I.P. Frank McKnight - You Will Be Missed
 

Frank often drove out to the Cincinnati, OH, area because he had family who lived here. It would generally take him a couple of hours to make it to some of the Hooters locations from West Virginia.

One of his many Mustangs along the way...

Re: R.I.P. Frank McKnight - You Will Be Missed
 

I'm saddened and shocked to hear this...may God watch over his soul. You will be missed Frank. RIP.

Let us know Tony...

Re: R.I.P. Frank McKnight - You Will Be Missed
 

Sorry to hear of Frankie's death. Count me in for the car show. locomotion

Re: R.I.P. Frank McKnight - You Will Be Missed
 

Wow, sorry to hear this. He's been very active since I joined about a year and a half ago. Noticed he hasn't been posting as much lately. RIP Frank.
My condolences to those who knew him well.
I thought of him on here as "the Hooters Guy".
