Dear Larry, Millie and Ginny

I am really sad to hear of Mr. T. leaving us. We were so excited to see him during our trip to Florida and Mike couldn't wait to golf with he and Uncle Tony. I'm home with the flu and have been for 5 days, so I couldn't get to the services and I'm so very upset about missing it. I really wanted to say my goodbyes.



I will always treasure my years at Humarock and thank your family for bringing that reality to our family. It is my goal to be able to do the same for my family.



We will miss him very much.



Love Always,

Lisa, Michael, Cameron and Julia.

My fondest memory of "Uncle Frankie", as my 3 boys called him, are of the pool in Frankie's backyard. My kids would be swimming, jumping, and splashing, and "Frankie" was right it the middle of it. He was a dear friend who ( with Millie's wonderful assistance) helped me through the most difficult time of my life by being there for my kids. Heaven shines brighter now, and I know Frank is the life of the party!

My thoughts and prayers are with you, Millie, and your children and grandchildren.

Memories of Uncle Frank go back almost fifty years...whenever Uncle Frank came into town, we always knew we were in for a great time ("Happy Land"). His laughter and love for his family inspired me. When my wife, Jennifer, met Uncle Frank, he made her feel as if she had known him forever. The strong family unit that Uncle Frank developed with his wife, Aunt Millie, his children and grandchildren, is one to be admired and forever remembered. We love you, Uncle Frank and we are comforted in knowing that you are now with the Lord.

Frank Tocci was a man with a giant heart. He made people feel special and welcome. His laugh and voice would boom and make everyone around him smile. To Millie, Ginny and Larry I'm so sorry for your loss.

But I guarantee that heaven is now going to be a better place.... a bit louder... but better.

Love to you all.
