My Name is Troy Lepird. Frank was my Little League Baseball Coach when I was years 8-10. I'm 47 years old now. I have great memories of him as my coach. He would take the team to get ice cream after a win. Both years we were pretty good so he bought a lot of ice cream. I was just talking about him last week with someone I was sharing memories with. I was unaware at that time of his passing. I'll miss him. He was a good man.

You will be missed tremendously and I am so thankful to have you as my uncle. You were there for every major event in my life. You were grumpy, funny, loving and very special to me and my siblings. Thank you for being a great uncle and for loving us. Through all your imperfections you were perfect, and never gave up. Thank you to my Tia Sylvia for making sure you had everything you needed and had the best care. Rest in peace, don't cause too much trouble in heaven and watch over us always....love you!!! Give my dad a big hug.
