Bob and family, so sorry to read about your dads passing. I thought of Frank frequently as he had a major part in how I turned out in life even though I gave Frank a hard time. He always had time, good advice and acted as dad when my father server in Korea and Vietnam during those trying years. I to was in troop 1083 and went to school with most of the kids. Like all of us we grew up moved away and lost contact. I woke up last night thinking of him again only to find this sad news.

Rest In Peace my good friend.

To Jeanne and all the Rossomondo family, we share in the loss of such a great man. Thanks for letting us share Frank in our lives. He was a great leader in Scouting and Youth Ministry at every level, from National to Local. We will all miss him deeply. God Bless Frank, his family and his many, many friends.

Frank will be missed. Frank was a former Scoutmaster for our troop - Troop 1083 in Silver Spring/ Rockville, Maryland. We were honored by his service. Frank was such an asset to our community. Frank was
also a knowledgeable resource for the National Catholic Committee on Scouting.

Our prayers are with his family.

Fascinating gentleman! I hope he left memoirs with his life story for a foreign policy buff to write about. He was in the thick of intelligence at it's birth....and managed to be an acvtive father, church member and community citizen. Amazing!
