The board and staff of the Maritime Museum wish to extend our sincere condolences to our colleague, Mary, on the death of her husband, Frank, who died yesterday, after a long illness, bravely borne by both.
Frank was a talented carpenter and was a volunteer in the museum, where his carpentry skills can be seen in use today, particularly, in the suite of display cabinets he built to host artefacts from La Trinidad Valencera, on loan from the Ulster Museum.
