In 1950, it was reported in the Daily Oklahoman, that "Frank C. Love, vice-president of Kerr-McGee Oil Industries, Inc., this week takes over as president of the new Deep Rock Oil Co. Love is a native of Purcell, graduated in law at University of Oklahoma and practiced in Oklahoma City in 1930-34, then joined Shell Oil."[4]
In 1963, it was reported in the Daily Oklahoman, that "City industrialist Frank C. Love, 54, executive vice president of Kerr-McGee Industries, Inc., is a candidate for councilman in Ward 3 with the backing of the Association for Responsible Government."[7]
Love was president of Kerr-McGee Corporation in, at least, 1968[8] and 1969.[9]
Personal lifeEdit
On December 29, 1931, he married Margaret Eugenia Vessels (November 12, 1910 – January 31, 2005), the daughter of Tom and Kathryn Hoehn Vessels, who had been a fellow student at the University of Oklahoma, and they settled in Oklahoma City where they resided until his death in 1978.[2] She was an ardent Catholic and converted her husband after eight years of marriage. In 1967, she was made a Lady of the Order of the Holy Sepulchre by the Pope, for her many years on the Pastoral Board of the Catholic Archdiocese of Oklahoma City.[2]
