We three girls met Frank through our Aunt Betty at a young age. Frank and Betty went to beauty school together. Frank quickly became part of our family. He shared holidays, birthdays and many dinners with us. When Frank came to visit or be with us he would always bring his 3 girls a Hershey´s bar every time he came and it continued all through our adult lives. We were his girls. If he came and forgot it, he would quietly leave and come back with those Hershey bars. That´s just how he was. A great loving and caring person. Frank loved to tell jokes and always had new ones to share with everyone. Frank loved the fire department and always talked about his fire calls and all the friends he made. He was always there to help. Frank loved to cook, too, and when he would come to visit us in Georgia on his way back to Buffalo from Florida in his camper, he would make homemade pasta. What a treat! There are so many memories we will cherish.
Frank was in the rehab facility when we told him Betty was in hospice, he was very upset that he could not go to see her. Betty passed away Christmas Day 2022 and we know she will be there to greet him when he arrives! Frank will live in our hearts and in our minds forever. We will miss him dearly. Rest In Peace, Frank with love from your 3 girls.

Frank was a very dear family friend. I have fond memories of Frank coming over my parents house for dinner and him and I going out for drinks and playing quick draw. Rest in peace my friend.
