So sorry to only find out today, of the death of Frankie. RIP.
Sincere condolences to Ann and all the family. Indeed, the Irish connection in Guelph have many fond memories of Frankie each time he would perform at the old Desert Inn, in Guelph. So sad.

Frankie had so many many friends who didn't get a chance to say good bye. We played @ his jams, wore his guinness hats, took him to Newfoundland, revelled in his stories & jokes. Such a selfless guy.
