To all the Micalizzi family, you are in my thoughts and prayers. I will always remember 'Uncle Frankie" He was my best friend Sharon Sanderson Haviland's uncle, so as a kid I thought he was my family too. Always a bright smile and kind words. He was a very good man that will be remembered and missed by many. May God bless him and all his family.
Sincerely, an old neighborhood kid from Brook St.

I extend my sincerest condolences to the entire Micalizzi family on your loss. I remember having conversations with Frank over his back yard fence. When he came outside, I used to call him "Chairman of the Board", I think he got a kick out of it. We talked about the old days, the Yankees, gardening, food, and anything else that came up. He also told me a funny story of how he stopped people from cutting through your yard when you first moved into the neighborhood. It was always nice to talk to an "old school" guy. There aren't many of them left anymore. God Bless his memory.
