Frank Baldanzi

Dearest Frank - You are always in my heart. I miss our talks, I miss your amazing smile, your gentle caring manner. You were truly one in a million and I cherish the memories of our friendship. I hope heaven is amazing.

I recently heard of Frank's passing. I was so saddened by the news. I send my love to my cousins. He was so kind and fun to be with. I enjoyed all the years he took care of my mother's taxes and looked forward to seeing him at our meetings. Say hi to my mama, Frank.

Sadly, I just learned of Frank's passing. As his first partner of two years during his separation and ultimate divorce, I was in the unique position to witness the excitement and emotional turbulence of his coming-out process. During that time period I experienced his love of family, especially for his daughter, Gina, his pride as a successful businessman, and his establishment as a power player in the gay community. Frank used his new self-confidence to forge friendships to explore and...

It was a great time in our lives. We will always remember Frank playing his accordion at the family outings among many other memories. We love you all and know Frank is in a beautiful place watching over his wonderful family.

Jay,

I hope find comfort in knowing that meeting you both for only a couple of hours taught me how to love deeper and to cherish the days I have with my husband. Jay your devotion and courage spoke volumes of how extraordinary your relationship was. I did not expect that short meeting would have such an enduring impact on me that I would often have thoughts about you both. Who knew?

I knew one thing for certain - that I would never lose the imprint Frank left on me, even to...

I was friend of Frank from 2nd grade at St. Matthew's until 1971 when we both graduated from Serra High School. Wise beyond his years, already in fifth grade, he was the master of the sardonic repartee. I always admired his natural sophistication, which he clearly nurtured throughout his life. He was a smart and funny person with a rapier wit who had the grace to tolerate the lesser mortals, and I am glad to have been one of them in his early life.

Poveracchio!! Che Dio ti proteggi e aiuti.

Dear Jay, Gina, and friends and family:
Frank was our stalwart, reliable account and friend ever since he opened his own office. We were happy he decided to enjoy the remainder of his life with Jay and his loved ones, traveling, savoring "slow food" and fine wine. Our entire family will miss him very much.

Sorry to hear of Franks passing. I was a member of Delta Sigma Pi with Frank at USF. He was someone you could always count on.
