Julie, Stephen and Bryan,

My deepest condolences on the sudden passing of Frank. Even though Frank was my first cousin, I only had a handful of opportunities to spend time with him over the years, but remembered him having a sharp sense of humor and a warm heart. My family and I share in your sorrow.

My condolences to Frank's family and friends. I worked with Frank at UPS and it was always a pleasure. He was so kind, caring and so up beat. I never new what he looked like until now, for we worked together by phone, but he was everything I imagined and more. I will miss him and it was an honor working with him.

I knew Mr. Gonzalez from when I worked at Plant City Airport several years ago. Although it had been a long time since I had seen him - I will always remember what a pleasant and delightful person he was to be around. It was friendly faces such as his that made my job enjoyable.

Frankie and I worked together for years. He was a wonderful young man that seemed to lite up the room when he entered. Everyone at UPS loved him. I know he will be missed by everyone and his loving smile will always be remembered. God Bless his family and friends.
