To the Armstrong family,
I've had the privilege of meeting only one member of the family, Frank, Jr., and know that his father must have been a very, very good man.
Please accept my sympathy and good wishes.

To the Armstrong Family
My deepest regrets on the passing of Frank. He was a strong union man, a great worker and a gentleman. I am sincerely sorry that I couldn't be there to say good-bye to a truly fine man. I am now living in Las Vegas, Nevada. I am also a retired Boston Public School Custodian and past president of the Boston Public Schools Custodians' Association.

To My Uncle Frankie- I have so many wonderful memories of you that I will always hold close to my heart!!! I remember disco dancing in the living room and you lifeguarding us at Aunt Dot's pool Most of all I just remember that you always told me you loved me when you saw me no matter how long it had been and also referring to me and all the other ladies as doll! Thanks for always making me feel special and know you will not be forgotten!!!!! I only wish that Olivia got to meet you! I think she is going to look like your sister Marie(the other Frances)!! It still makes me laugh that Lucy named her two kids Francis/Frances! I LOVE YOU ALWAYS YOUR GREAT NIECE KELLY!!!
Aunt Clair, Frank, Chrissy and Brian and all the family-My sympathies go out to all of you because I know how much you must be grieving! Uncle Frankie was such a great guy and I have so many memories of Weyanoke St and Nana Lucy and all of you!!! How truly special all of you made me and Scott's childhood. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all!! Love You Always Kelly, Barry and Olivia McGrath

Claire, Brian, Chrissy, Frankie and all of you, I just wanted to express my sadness and sympathy to all of you on the loss of Frank. He is and was so loved by all of us at One Weyanoke. I have fond memories of growing up next door to all of you and you all were so much a part of many generations in our family. I will always remember him lifting me over the fence ever so gently to play with Brian and how when we played, how cool I though it was that Brian had a doll named Stretch "Armstrong". I always loved to watch Frank and Claire walk up the street like a "younger" dating couple, referring to eachother as boyfriend and girlfriend (even after so many years of marriage). Thier relationship has always been an inspiration to me. Claire, the day you and Frank moved away from Weyanoke was a very sad day, an end of an era. I missed you both then and will miss Frank dearly now. My thoughts are with all of you.
