Not sure what to say?

Much to my surprise today I received a call from my good ole friend Patty Horachek Stephenson only to learn of our beloved Franks passing. After growing up a mile from Frankie’s, I can't help feel a real sense of loss and sadness. Not only for the family--Renee and Rox, but the community in which he happily served.

Many of you remember our first job working at the pizza shop...making the boxes, prepping the half bakes, slicing the pepperoni, adding manually (before calculators...

Renee& Roxanne,
Sorry to hear of Frank's passing.Our prayers & thoughts are with you & your families.Frankie's
pizza was the best.Always stopped on the way to the keys when visting sister Babe & brother -in-law Vic.Frank will be missed by many.

and will be missed.Sorry, I was unable to attend the service.You have been in my thoughts and prayers.God Bless.Tony Chickillo.

Sincere condolences to we "survivors". Frankie, of blessed memory, will be missed.

We extend our deepest condolences to the Pasquarella family - since 1958, Frankie's Pizza has been a big part of our lives and we enjoyed going there most when Frank was at the counter. He was a gentleman - one of a kind - and he will be missed.

Our family is so sorry to hear about Frankie. From Elementary School thru the High School years at Southwest, there was hardly a week that went by that we did not eat Frankies Pizza. He was such a great man and always treated all of us as if we were his own. I think he was the only Adult we would listen to! You have suffered a great loss. Our thoughts and Prayers are with you.

The Pasquarella Family:

We wish to express our deepest sypathy to you of your loving father Frankie. He will always be in our memories of the times we we had talking about the past. We became immediate friends when I told Frankie I served in the U.S. Marine Corps in WW2 and he told me he was also a WW2 Marine.

Frankie learned I was of Italian ancestry like he was and every time
I came for pizza, he would say,'hey
there's my Italiano...

Saddened to hear of Mr. Pasquarella's passing. Our prayers go out to the family. We have enjoyed his establishment for many years.

So sorry to learn of Mr. Pasquarella's passing.
