To Philly,
Sincere condolences from very old friends, the Christian sisters - Esther, Myrna and Donna

Dear Mary Grace and Cusumano clan,
My heartfelt condolences to you all. I am so blessed to have known Frank and your family while Frank lived with us here at Sunrise. I remember our dances, and the endless exchanges of broken Italian (at least mine was broken!) I always looked forward to chatting during lunch. I'll miss the smiles Frank brought to us everyday, but certain he is looking down with infinite gladness now. God Bless!

My favorite memory of Frank is when my three favorite guys at Sunrise dined together: my Dad - Monte Lopata, Hyman Eisenberg, and Frank. I joined them one night for dinner, and engaged all of them in a lively conversation about (of all things) facial hair. I asked each one of them if they had ever grown a mustache or beard, how their wives felt about it, etc. We all laughed together as each recalled their experiences with facial hair!
Frank's a great guy and will remain so forever. I send...

Big Frank was a wonderful person, and a pleasure to know. We are very sorry for the Cusumano family's loss, as well as Kemoll's loss. Our prayers to the entire Kemolls family.

To The Cusumano Family:
Your loss is felt by many. It was an HONOR and a Privelage to know Big Frank. He never had a cross word to say, and always put a smile on my face. He was an honorable man, with integrity, dignity, and most of all WISDOM. He will be truly missed and thought of often. My heart goes out to you, and my prayer is that your time of grief and sorrow be overshadowed by all the wonderful memories of his time w/you. God Bless.

To all the Cusumanos,
I will always remember growing up at Pillar and seeing your mom and dad at church and running with Frankie and Kevin Ruzicka when girls were allowed. I know how much you will miss him as I do miss my mom & dad, Joann & Doc Harvey, every day.
My condolences to each of you and especially to you, Mrs. Cusumano. You have lost a wonderful husband but remain behind well loved by each of your children, I'm sure.
Take care of each other and know that there are lots of...

I know Frank Sr. will be greatly missed by not only his family but all who had the great fortune of knowing him. May God keep and bless you all in your time of sorrow.

I have many fine memories of the Kemoll and Cusumano family at the old restaurant at Grand and Penrose. Frank always kept a watchful eye as I took a break from the daily grind of policing the old neighborhood. Mary Grace, Mark, Doug, Mary Ellen and the rest of the family, please know that my prayers are with you as you adjust to this huge loss. Heaven has opened its gates wide for Frank and he is gone for just a while as he waits for us to join him singing and working side by side with...

I would like for everyone to know that Frank was very special to us at Sunrise Assitsted Living.
