We received a memoriam notice from Frank Kimball's brother, Bob Kimball (BHHS '73).
"Even though Frank passed away 11 years ago, I'd still like to think he's commemorated.
FRANK KIMBALL, BHHS 1970. 1953 – 2011 Frank Kimball '70 died of an aortic dissection on October 28, 2011. Frank graduated magna cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa from UCLA, where he also placed as 2nd Speaker at the 1973 National Debate Tournament. He then graduated from the University of Michigan Law School where, with brother George '69, he won the 1977 Moot Court Competition. Frank practiced law on Wall Street and in Chicago, then moved from a post as his firm's national hiring partner to found his own legal search, placement and consulting firm. He spent the rest of his working life advising, amusing, inspiring, and enriching clients, monetarily and otherwise; all while making time to advise, amuse, and inspire a generation of middle school boys' football and elementary school girls' basketball players. Frank is survived by his wife Linda Listrom, his daughter Shannon, his stepson Matthew Colman, his sister Martha Lantz, and brothers George '69 and Bob '73."
I remember Frank and his brother George. My family and Frank's were neighbors for some years on Maple Drive just off of Wilshire. The Kimballs were a nice family- relatively quiet and to themselves. By contrast, my family was lucky we were not thrown out of the neighborhood. I appreciate Frank's law school accomplishments. I myself participated in the moot court competition in 1991 and am familiar with the effort it takes to win. I am sorry to hear of Frank's passing. It sounds like he was a real asset to his community. I hope George is doing well. George and I were on the 1968 championship team together with Geoff Schlaes whom we lost about 6 years ago to heart failure.
