Dear Marie & family,
I can not believe what I just read---I was going through my emails & was reading one from Kelly & read that Frank passed away. I don't know what to say, I am truly in shock! I am so sorry for your loss, I wish I knew sooner I would have liked to have been there for you & the kids. Frank was a great guy, always helping others, always thinking of others & he will be greatly missed by all. He will always be with all of you in your hearts & memories.
Love,

I am so sorry to hear about Frank, if I had known earlier, I would have been there to pay my respects. I met Frank in high school (Buena). He was such a handsome, funny guy! (he was one of the hottest guys in our class! ) He was a friend, a pal, and a lot of fun. I met him years later and he was still as he always was! Always with that great smile and good outlook on life! His smile will be missed, as he will at our class of 1980 reunions.......he will always be in our hearts and the subject of many happy stories!
To his children and wife....I can only imagine your grief. I hope it helps a little to know that he was so liked by so many. His smile touched those that knew him. I will keep you all in my prayers.

To all of the Carano family,

I am so sorry to hear about this. I met Frankie only once and he was very sweet. He was older than my brother and I but I remember him and Nanette playing games with us (willingly, I think) and resetting his parents grandfather clock so we could hear it chime again and again.
You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

To the Carano family; I met Frank at the doctors office I work for, and I am so sorry for your loss. He was such a sweet, caring man-and I will miss him. He was one of those people you couldn't help but like. You are all in my prayers.

Marie & Carano Family,
I'm in shock, right now. I've loved Frank since the day I met him at Bell Atlantic in Pleasantville. I know first hand, how very helpful Frank was. He was always willing to help when I needed him. What a great loss! May GOD and prayer comfort you in your time of sorrow.

Frank- i remember the 1st day i met you at good old Verizon. Drove all those girls crazy. You started a week before me-we were the newbies. Many a nights on the late shift in our good old pvil office. I introduced you to the love of your life, Marie, at Verizon training in Plainfield. The four of us, you, marie, nick and i, have been close friends ever since. We've shared sooo many wonderful time-our families, wedding, god-children, late-nights, family functions etc.. We are going to miss you horribly. Know that we will ALWAYS be here for Marie and the kids-we love them. We won't let them forget the great times and the good man you were. Our deepest sympathy goes out to your family-whom we love as our own as well. God let you drive that new boat thru the pearly gates and i can see you cruising around on it-that and your jeep. Be at peace-God Bless and we love you man-always.
