Janie, it only seems like yesterday that you, your mother & Frankie would walk over our house for a visit.
He always called my father "the ganster". I will have those memories forever. All my love, Ro

I knew Frankie when I was a young child growing up across the street from him on Willow St. He was so special to me and I never forgot him, he was so much fun to be around. I was saddened to hear of his passing and I am sure he will be forever missed.

Frankie, you have been so much of my/our life at Road to Responsibility.

Your smile in the morning and throuought the day. When you called me son and I responded Dad. So much of you will remain at the Plymouth Vocational Center.

Every birthday, that you share with Maurene, your name, will be mentioned with a smile and a prayer.

We miss you my friend!! You will not ever be forgotten and I will always smile when I think of you just like the smile you gave me every day.

Thank you Frankie, look out for us in Heaven.

Rob and the all of us at RTR.

Jane and Tom,
How sad it is to hear that such a dear person has passed. "Frankie" was definitely one of God's special children, and he will be missed by many, I am sure. I have such fond memories of him, with his record player, conducting the music and having such a good time. He was the sweetest person I have ever known. I'm sure your mother and father are so happy to have him with them. Please contact me when you can.
