Read MoreI’ve known Frank since I was in first grade in White Plains and he was the big brother of my friend. I haven’t seen him or his family for years, but I heard he was becoming a priest. He and his whole family were lovely people. His Czechoslovakian grandma was adorable and used to call me “punk.” I’m very sad to hear of this great loss. My sincere condolences to the family. May he Rest In Peace.

I was so sad to hear about the passing of Father Frank. I met Frank along time ago when he worked at the FAA. I was his secretary and he was the best boss ever! His cheesecakes were legendary and I loved when my birthday came up so I could pick whatever flavor I wanted. Father Frank was a true gentleman. Condolences to his family.

So sad to hear about Father Frank...or just "Frank" to those of us that use to work with him during his career at the FAA. He was a very intelligent,, kind, and caring person. As someone else mentioned, he would make us our favorite cheesecake for our birthday. I have missed his friendly demeanor and disarming humor since he left to join the seminary. My sincere condolences to his relative and spiritual families...I'm sure he will continue to serve the Lord well!

Frank was a wonderful person and friend. I worked with him at the FAA in Washington DC. We attended his ceremony in New York when he became a priest. We were lucky to have known him. This is very upsetting news to all who knew him. Words cannot express the sadness in my heart.
