A tribute to Sir Frank, who truly deserved this last honour given to him by family, friends, students, colleagues and brother knights.

A man who, not only on death, but also during life has been honoured as was done on the 7th of December 2013, at the Great Church of Beverwijk/The Netherlands. Various times Sir Frank Philipoom could enjoy rightfully earned honourings for all he stood for. At 58 years he had a very impressive record, and he meant a lot for sports and defence in the area, as well as for knighthood through his humanitarian activities.

The call to have as many children attend as possible to release a balloon was followed immensely. Here too, the children were given a lot of thought, something that had been an important part of Sir Frank Philipoom's life.
