My thoughts are with AJ and all the family at this sad time. It was a pleasure and privilege to share so much time within your family and home during my youth. Franz played a loving and guiding hand at keeping a large bunch of us on the straight and narrow, entertained and feeling welcome. I loved the esoteric and odd knowledge Franz would pass on to us. Rest in peace Franz. Sending love and best wishes to all. Mark Crawshaw, Melbourne

Condolences to Jeanette (AJ) and all the Krippner family on the loss of "Uncle" Franz.
Franz had a significant influence on me during my young adult life and was such a caring, hospitable and welcoming man and taught me so much, thank you.
My thoughts are with you all.

Dear Auntie Jeanette and all my cousins, their spouses and children
So sad to learn of Uncle Franz's sudden death. No doubt Heaven will be a better-functioning place for his presence there, and Earth the sadder for his loss. My heart goes out to you all.
I am having Mass said in my parish in Wellington for the happy repose of Uncle Franz's soul, in lieu of being able to attend the funeral.
Peace and blessings to you all
Much love
Margaret Bearsley
