Tom Frost: 'I Know Lisa Is Remembered'
City's love of his daughter is apparent, says the father of Orange County's only 9/11 casualty.

Tom Frost says thanks. The father of Orange County's only victim of the 9/11 terror attacks of 2001, Frost is still touched by what he sees in Lisa Frost's hometown of Rancho Santa Margarita.
While visitors lit candles and set flowers on the marker for Lisa Frost at the edge of Lago Santa Margarita, Tom Frost was continuing Lisa's legacy of service. He said he spent Sept. 11 toting a thousand pounds worth of food to the San Francisco Solano Catholic Church food bank.
He also visited his daughter's crypt in Orange at the Cemetery of the Holy Sepulcher, and visited her marker at the lake. He also spent time with Melanie Frost, his ex-wife and Lisa's mother who now lives in Laguna Woods.
"It was a good day," Frost said. "I know Lisa's remembered and that's the nice thing. I saw it all over town and all over Orange County.
"It's so sweet."
