Growing up, I remember Frankie as being a part of my family. He was my Dad's best pal...Joe Pet. I have so many memories of him, to many to mention. One thing for certain, you always new you could count on him. Frankie was a very dear friend of my father and to my family. I have thought of him often through the years, and I am very sorry to hear of his passing. I will always remember him.............
