Not sure what to say?

Was sorry to hear about Frank! My dad, Harry Wenning played with him on football in Bloomfield back in the day. He passed away August 24, 2012 from pancreatic cancer...just a year earlier than Frank. What GREAT men they were.

Dear Randy, Tracy, TJ, Kelly and Family,
Just learned of your loss. Frank was a great father. I have wonderful memories of Frank and your family when I was recruiting Tracy for Lafayette and when he attended our games.
My prayers are with you.

Randy, my dearest friend. I am so sorry for this huge loss...I remember your husband graciously giving my late husband an autographed picture and you surprising me with it as a Christmas gift...you were and will always be that bright light for me.... God bless and keep you and your children in this time..... Big hug... April from Viva......

Frank Tripucka has left his legacy at Notre Dame, NFL, and in Bloomfield. His love of life was always present in his greatest love which was that of his family. Frank was most proud of his family. To you all may God bless you for your loss.
