Frank Rozenkranz is the husband of air stewardess Nieves de Larracoechea who was killed when Pan Am Flight 103 exploded over Lockerbie in Scotland on 21 December 1988.
Rozenkranz, who was married to Nieves Larracoechea for 10 years, gave up his insurance broker's business and his house in Spain to dedicate himself to solving the Lockerbie bombing case:
- "I went out and bought a computer and got down to work,' he said. 'I spend every day looking into aspects of the bombing. It is what I have to do. I think it is the most normal thing. I have no family and I'm prepared to commit myself to this for three or four years. It is another chapter in my life and I have to turn it into something good."
The something good would be combatting world terrorism by finding ways making aircraft and airports safer:
- "You cannot achieve this just by putting in more guards and equipment", he said. "You have to visit the various countries, study the culture of the people, the political situation and many other aspects. This is what I want to get involved in — either with a consumer group, a political party or some other body."
Frank Rozenkranz has pleasant, loving memories of his wife:
- "She was very much liked by all her colleagues", he said. "She had close friends all over the world. She loved her job and wanted to stay on although we did not need her salary. She never thought about danger. She kept the newspaper cutting on the Tenerife air disaster — the worst ever — but never spoke about crashes. My memory of her keeps me going. Investigating Pan Am Flight 103 is now my life."[1]
