Not sure what to say?

Three years after his death in 2021, I continue to hold fond memories of Frank Crebase close to my heart and soul. He was generous to many people who needed his help financially and spiritually. If someone needed some money before receiving the next paycheck, Frank would give that person enough to fill in the gap. If prayer was needed, Frank would pray for that person.

Frank was one of the most generous and honest individuals I have ever met. My earthly life was made better...

Thoughts and prayers to the family. Frank is in Heaven with my father and one of his best friends, William (Bill) Dwyer. I am sure both are playing a round of golf as we speak.

My thoughts and prayers to the Crebase family. Frank and I grew up together in Wallingford, attending the same Parochial school, and then on to Xavier. Frank always had a great sense of humor, followed by his signature laugh. Although our paths haven't crossed in years, I will miss knowing that he was around. Peace be with you my friend.

Frank lived where I did, his birthday was always a day ahead of me. I met him again in '63, as member of his OC at Xavier. Rest in peace, my friend

Rest In Peace Frank all my prayers

While Frank was at Xavier and I was at Mercy at the same time, I met him in 1975 in a West Haven apartment house next door to him. Four apartments faced an inside hallway and once the four single neighbors got to know each other, we left our doors unlocked and sometimes open. It was like being in a college dorm. We all had a lot of fun. And he regaled us with stories from his training job at McDonald’s. When we all moved on we didn’t stay in touch. My condolences to the family. Gone...

Frank and I were classmates and teammates at Xavier High School in the 60s. Sharing those years with him allowed us to develop a bond of friendship that has spanned decades. Frank was an authentic person. He was a dedicated, committed friend. He was a complete football player and a caring, charismatic member of our greater high school community. He will be missed. A truly great loss.

I have known Frank since college. I have some wonderful memories of our many years together. He was a kind, fun-loving man who loved to sing. He did a great Dean Martin imitation! My prayers go out to his family. I will always remember Frank with fondness and love.

He was my old boss he will be greatly missed
