Not sure what to say?

With Frankie, just like his brother Dan;it was never like hanging with a rock star. It was always like meeting an old buddy (a really talented buddy) in the aisle of Home Depot. You were a class act my friend and I'll always remember how kind you were to a couple of young guys who were living out one of their dreams, listening to and hanging out with the Allman Brothers all those years ago.

My sincere condolences to the Toler family. The road goes on forever...

Marsha, Danny, everyone....I'm shocked and saddened to hear of your loss. Frankie was always kind to me, as were you all,and the greatest drummer Southern Rock ever knew. I'll remember him often and warmly.....Gary

Dave Im so glad I got to come down these past 3 yrs. The fun moments to the serious talks. Little things like you taking me to your favorite "Ice Cream Hut". You showing me how you could flip your boots & have them stand back up. Even the serious moments. Im so glad I got to be by your side when you needed me. I promise to watch over Danny for you. "Everytime I hear thunder, I'll know your there". Give a kiss to Grandma, Grandpa & dad. I love you Dave, forever.
Your favorite Niece, "J"

Marsha & Aja, just wanted to send lots of prayers to both of you. May God hold you close now and forever. Keep in touch life is short.

Love and Peace to all the family. The wonderful memories and his humor will always live on. Love you.
Sara and Lefty

To Marsha, Aja Kayle, Danny & Debbie~ I am so sorry for your loss. Dave's (Frankie's) passing will leave a hole in the hearts of all who knew him, but his memory will live on within us all. His music has brought pleasure to so many of us, and he touched many lives. I wish I had known he was in Bradenton; I would have liked to visit with him. Please know if I can be of any help to you, my door is always open. Fondest regards,

My deepest sympathy to the Toler Family. Growing up in Connersville hanging out Dan and Dave at Twilight in Ohio were some great memories.

Always a friend, always in thought, even when so far away and the years passed by with no talk. Good people you just never forget... Rest In Paradise, Frankie. Heartfelt condolences to your family and friends. We will never forget you!!!
