Not sure what to say?

Nancy and Rachel, We are very sad to learn of Franks passing. My parents Gayton and Marlene valued his friendship like no other. I can remember Frank and Gayton pouring over everything football and solving gridiron strategies on numerous weekend afternoons. He was one of the most learned people I've ever known and his memory I will cherish forever. Our deepest sympathy and prayers to you all in his memory.

I have never forgotten Mr. Salvidio. He was a wonderful teacher in a wonderful high school. Sharon A. Clark

Nanci, Rachel and Dan, Reading of Franks passing is truly the "End of Civilization as we know it". He was so funny and kind. He will be forever remembered and missed. My thoughts go out to you all in this tough time. Love, Jillanne

My dearest Frankie, it was a blessing to have you become such a big part of my life over the last year. What started out as a friendship quickly turned into family. Thank you for being my friend, Although I wish our friendship could have lasted a lifetime... I´m grateful for the time I was blessed to be able to spend with you. I will never forget our memories and I will always hold them close to my heart forever. Thank you for all of your advice and most of all thank you for all the laughs...

To Frank´s Family: We knew him as Frank. He walked around our exercise room carrying a book at all times. He was our "go-to" guy for any questions or trivia. Soft spoken, with great intelligence. He was our professor. Only covid broke up our little group. Sadly missed by all your friends at cardiac rehab. Richard D. Trombly

Rest in peace Sal , you were a good friend.

Rest in peace cousin Jr. I still remember sleepovers in tents on Bigelow´s Hill, behind my mom´ s house- some 80 years ago. Jr was a great kid and involved into a great person. To his family I say, "remember the good times ". God bless you all. Michael, Jr. (Uncle Angelo´s son)

From across the miles and years, I send deepest sympathy to the Salvidio family. I cherish many fond memories of Sal the many times I met him at the Glogowski home in Agawam, always enjoying conversations and stories. With heartfelt condolences, Martha Furman Kojro (niece of Alice and Stas Glogowski)
