Dear Frankie..... So sorry to hear about your Dad´s passing. So many times I´ve spoken about gathering last year for his 100th. Then there were the floors of memories of him, while growing up.

I never met you on the job (CPD), possibly when you were at the County, but we did cross paths at the Irish American Club. Semper Fi Sir....RIP

Mr. Gaughan is fondly remembered by the SITES classes of North Olmsted High School. He was a regular honoree at our Salute to Veterans and a fine guest at our Springvale events. One of our fondest memories is our class walking to his home in 2013 to sing patriotic songs and present him with his Veterans Day gift. Rest in Peace, Frank.

My deepest sympathy to the families of our dear "Uncle Frank". He was a wonderful man and I have so many fond memories of him from Martha Road. I was blessed to have you as my godfather. Give my mom a hug up in heaven!

Frank will be greatly missed. It was a delight living next door to him and Dorothy for my entire childhood. He loved when I’d bring my daughter Maria to visit, I’ll never forget those sweet moments between them. Maria loved telling everyone that Gram and Pops’ next door neighbor is 101 years old! May Frank Rest In Peace

Doris and I would like to express our condolences to his beloved wife Dorothy and the Gaughan and Tolowitski family. Dorothy and Frank have been our next door neighbors since 1977. We consider them to be two of our closest friends and we’re touched deeply on Frank’s passing. We will keep you all in our prayers. ❤
