Re: new to this, but still want help
The passports are in a book (but we access them through a subscription site called Ancestry). The picture on the left of your grandfather's first page is the second page of the previous passport.

Frank was probably the undertaker. On the above record it states that they knew him for 13 years, so he was probably a good friend.
