Not sure what to say?

I lost my real brother Ron on March 15, 2016 and last year I lost my musical brother Frank on March 16, 2022. I miss them dearly. Every time I hear a sax playing I can see and hear Frank doing what he loved to do. Play his heart out for everyone to enjoy. A Master at his craft.

RIP Franky....... I really enjoyed playing in The Jazz Underground group...... you was a great man and you will be sadly missed.... Your passing is a huge loss to the music world. .... RIP my friend

I was so sorry to hear about Frank´s passing. I had just reconnected with him. Frank was a great friend, teacher and musician. Frank and Danny were my best friends growing up in RI. So sorry....

Just heard about Frank's passing. So nice to hear all the other messages of appreciation of what a great guy and musician he was. We also enjoyed his writing in writing class at the Pawcatuck Neighborhood Center.

So sorry for your loss. I share many wonderful memories playing gigs with Frank & his brother Dan. He was an amazing talent who spent countless hours writing out the horn parts for covering BS&T, Chicago, Santana & many others. Love you Frank! RIP

My deepest sympathy to Mr. Procaccini´s family. My brother John and I were both band students at Clark Lane. Many years later his band played at my wedding reception. His dedication to his students and his love of music touched so many people.

i was fortunate enough to play some gigs years ago with Easy Going that´s when i first met Frank, i always looked forward to seeing and talking to him, he always had kind words and such a great player. RIP my friend

So sorry to hear of Frank's passing. I was fortunate to have played many gigs with him, he was a wonderful man.

Frank was a friend, former colleague, and a wonderful man. We were in a long running general business band together from around 1980 to the late 90's. I have so many great memories from that time with Frank. He was hands down an incredible musician and a one of a kind soul. I always would remind Frank that in my life he was a mentor to me esp. with music and performing. His influence on me in that realm is unmatched by any other. I will miss him very much.
