Not sure what to say?

As a drummer, I worked with Dave Bournazian for many years. Dave introduced me to Frank's recordings.
Frankie was unique in every way.
He will truly be missed by his fans, friends, and family.
May God bless you Frankie and listen to your fantastic drumming in the Band of Heaven.
Joe Sorrentino of Albany, NY

Thanks for all the great music and bands you provided over the years and for just being you and hanging out. So many treasured memories and stories we shared.

You and Shelly Mann with your raincoats.

My heartfelt condolences to his family and his fiance.

My heartfelt condolences for your loss. Rest assured life is precious to our Creator. He promises to act in our behalf.
1 Corinthians 15:26

There is a saying that in a musical, 'the drummer drives the train'. During the years in which I was privileged to work with Frank in the pit, the only bad nights were when Frank had a night off and we had a swing drummer.
Aside from his impeccable musicianship..his smiling face and kind demeanor were just as powerful as his amazing playing. He was simply the best show drummer ever.

Sincerest condolences for your loss. May precious memories of your dear loved one, and beautifully comforting words, such as those found in Psalm 20:1,2, provide some measure of encouragement in this difficult time.

Spent many summers in Maine with Francis and Doris and their parents. RIP

Andre Previn, Red Mitchell and Frankie Capp...ONWARD!!!

On a very different juggernaut now, Frank will still be leading the band, joyously! Rest in Peace.
