I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Your dad was a wonderful person. He was always kind and caring of others. My deepest condolences to you and your family.

So sorry for the loss of your husband, father and friend. Frank was a great co-worker. I remember him always saying "this is how we did it in the City". We had lots of laughs about that saying, and working with him made the day seem more like fun instead of work.

My heart has been heavy since I heard of Frank's passing. As I have said to the girls, he was one of the good guys. To Pat, your marriage and love of Frank was always an inspiration to me . I will forever think of our fun times celebrating holidays, graduations and just being together. Frank was a man who always put his girls first and I will miss him very much. I will be with you all on Monday and will share hugs and stories as we all say goodbye to this wonderful man. Love, Leslie and John
