Now I lay thee down to sleep.
This day I will forever weep.
I will forever remember you for who you are.
Always the biggest, brightest, shining star!
Frenchy,
I still sit and look at you and Dan's picture that sits on my armoir and still it feels like yesterday you were at my Dad's house playing with Kya. I am so fortunate to be able to say that you were part of my family, not by blood, but by love! I am so happy that you were able to meet my daughter and that she is old enough now to remember who you are and all the fun times the two of you shared. You were my father's best friend for over 50 years and a part of my life since I can remember. I will always keep a special place in my heart for you and Dan.
Missing you always...Loving you Forever!

I just got the word that Frenchie has passed. I have only know him for him about 7 years. A business relationship turned into a friendship I can say when he walked in a room he filled it with happiness, he has a huge heart and was a very giving person. I want his family to know how much we looked forward to his phone calls and his visits, we always looked forward to seeing Frenchie, Loved his laugh, loved his converation, When he walked in the room the whole atmosphere changed to positive no matter how negative our day was going. He always spoke of his love for his children, he was so proud of all of you. I deeply regret not knowing he passed, I would of liked to attend his services.
I can only hope all who knew Frenchie realize only the good die young. I hope he has met up with his son.

Uncle,
I'm proud to be your god daughter, and all of my memories of you are great ones. Last time we spoke, we said to each other, hi sexy!! You knew you were, with that beautiful smile of yours. I remember bragging about my Uncle Frenchy growing up, NOBODY messes with my uncle, I would say. If they only knew, you were actually a sweetheart. Now you're with Dan and my other god parent, memere Rondeau, give them kisses for me..I love you

HHHHEEEEEYYYY! is all I hear everytime I look at your picture, in that ever so raspy voice! I look at your picture and still don't believe that I won't see your happy face anymore. I have cried so many tears and I don't know when they will stop. I miss you soooo much! You were my father's best friend and a person I could not think of calling anything but my family. I love you Frenchy, I miss you so much! You were a great friend and an even better father! I hope you are at peace now and sitting with your son once again! Please visit me in my dreams....I miss you. I love you. I want you back!!!
To Lia, Darren, Nick, & Amy,
You were so fortunate to have had him in your life. He was an AWESOME person and would have done anything for you. He loved you all soooo much and was so proud of all of you...And don't let anyone ever tell you different.

Uncle Frenchy, You will be missed by the many people that were lucky to know you. You were magnetic, and had charisma. So many people wanted to be around you, especially to see that beautiful smile and to hear you laugh. I am so happy that you were part of my life and I will have wonderful memories of you. I know you are with your son Danny and Memere Rondeau. Rest in Peace, and I love you.

Dearest Frenchy,
You were the "best man" at my wedding. My sister was the "maid of honor". You each had a connection then and did right up till the day you passed. My heart is very sad. You always had the greatest smile and the best laugh that was very catchy. I can still hear it when I look at your picture. May you rest in peace Frenchy. We will miss you and love you always.
To Darren,Lea, Amy and Nick,
You were all so fortunate to have him as a "DAD" and step-"DAD" KNOW THAT HE LOVED YOU ALL SO VERY MUCH!
PEACE BE WITH US ALL
WITH MUCH LOVE,

Frenchy will be missed by all, he was always very kind, thoughtful when speaking to you in a way that made you feel comfortable and loved. Since the Wang days,fishing trips to Pulaski and the French club, he was a true gentleman that I have know for over 25 years, rest in peace my friend . ooo

My deepest condolences to the entire Gionet family. Frenchy was a part of my life since May 1972. He was a very dear part of the Gauthier family of friends. He was as close to me as both of my uncles, who were very close friends with him all my life. I am very saddened by this end of his life. Being a father to a small boy (Mark Jr.) I can understand the pain he must have endured losing Dan Jr. We must rest assured though that he is at peace now in the arms of our lord, and close to Danny. I will be serving the mass at St. Margaret's for you tomorrow, with a very heavy heart. God's peace be with you, I pray. From my family to your's.

Frenchy was practically a member of our family years ago when he and my deceased brother David hung out. Later on in years Frenchy and Dave would spend time with us at the beach house in York ME. We were just so used to him being around our family for 30-40 years. I will miss seeing Frenchy around. My deepest sympathy goes out to his family. He is finally back with his son. God Bless Frenchy

I saw Frenchy for the first time in many,many years the summer of 2006. Growing up in Lowell, he was very good friends with my older brother, David Faticanti, who also passed at the age of 50. In 2006 both Frenchy and Dave rode their Harley's throughout the summer for the first time ever. After 20 some years, it was a nice sight to see. Now they are riding together again in eternity. You, like Dave, Frenchy were taken too young. God hand picks the best. God Bless. My sympathies to the family.
love you guys The Gelinas Family

To Michelle, Laurie, Danny and the rest of the Gionet family. I am SO SORRY for the loss of Uncle Frenchie. I may have only been able to call him Uncle Frenchie because of my relationship w/all of you but I want you to know that he will be missed and thought of fondly in my mind. We all had some really good times and he will be missed by many. I am sure that these happy times & mamories will make losing such a nice man a little easier!!
He is watching over all and he is finally able to hug & hold his son again which I am sure makes him happy too!!
Bet there are some good times happening up in heaven right now. All riding harley's together!!!
Ride on Uncle Frenchie!!!!

I would like to express my sympathy to Frenchy's family. He was a great guy and we had alot of good times together. He loved his children and talked of them often. I had a chance to talk with him a couple of weeks ago and I could tell he was really hurting. He talked about how proud he was of his daughter and how much he missed his son Dan. I will miss him and when I think of him I will allways think about Paradise which is part of a song that we often listened to.and danced too together. To my good friend Frenchy RIP'S and we will never forget you. To his family you were lucky to have such a great person in your life. God bless all of you

Frenchy knew how to make your day with a kind word or a compliment and even a hug, whether you saw him daily or once a year. A nice smile he had all the time. We will miss him!!!! My sympathy to Joanne and the family.

I am heartbroken beyond words for Frenchys family. To you his children, I want you to know that he was not only a good father, but also a loving friend. We grew up together in Lowell, and I will miss him tremendously. I know he had such a hard time with the death of your brother, and I hope and pray he is now in heaven with him once again.
My Deepest Sympathy to the entire Gionet family.
Much love,
