Not sure what to say?

Father Frank was a wonderful instructor at WSU college of Pharmacy. He was attentive to our academic needs, but also gave great insight to what it would be like practicing Pharmacy . May he rest in peace for all eternity.

Thank you for your counsel to a young priest many years ago. You will be missed but not forgotten. Archbishop Andre Queen, SCR

You were the first faculty member at SUCOP to extend your hand to me and my late mother when we went to go visit and do a tour of the College of Pharmacy. In that very moment, I knew it was meant to be that I were to attend pharmacy school and open doors for the rest of my life. Thank you for showing me how to become a better person and a positive thinker. May you Rest In Peace Dr. Facione, and I until we meet once again in heaven. May God Bless you always.
Michael B.

Thank you for all your guidance at Wayne State University College of Pharmacy and at Kappa Psi. Those were some great years for me and you were a big part of it.
Now enjoy Heaven and the blissful eternity that you have earned.

"Well done, good and faithful servant, enter into your rest."

Thoughts and prayers for family and friends.

May he rest in peace.

Bishop David Dismas
Mission Diocese of Saint Nicholas

Thanks for being a mentor who often kiddingly threatened to send a few of us to the Univerdity of Gnome Alaska if we misbehaved

Many fond memories

Your friend

I do hope that Bishop Francis has now had a chance to visit with Erasmus whose life and work he admired and whose books he was always asking me to find for the ORC seminary in Florida.

I always enjoyed reading New Perspectives of which he was rightly proud.

May his memory be eternal!

His Grace will be sorely missed by me. He was always concerned about me and guided me for over 45 years as a friend, mentor and my Bishop. I will miss his counsel and the sage advice he gave. I know he is in heaven and still watching over us.

Frank, I will always remember you as my friends have nicknamed you... "Father Pharmacy". I will say a kaddish prayer for you at my shule. As a mentor in Kappa Psi, you had always welcomed everyone on their level. Making them comfortable in the group and in their own skins. In Wayne State University School of Pharmacy, you encouraged me when I was not performing at my best. It made a difference.
I have no doubt that you are sitting down for a conversation and a scotch with God in...
