Dear Aunt Dorie and family - what a wonderful, loving, inspirational man Uncle Frankie was. Of course you know he was loved and admired by so many, not only his family, but his friends, clients and business acquaintances. We have so many wonderful memories of our family times throughout the years. Our prayers are with you and your family and we will look to the time when we are all again once reunited. Love you so much!

Dear Aunt Dorie and family,

Just thinking of Uncle Frankie and some of the humorous things he said and did make me want to laugh. He was such an upbeat person with a great sense of humor. We will miss him so much, but his wonderful memories will live on in the hearts of all who knew him. Our prayers are with you all.

Love, Doris, John and family

I can only smile when I think of my Uncle Frankie! He will forever be remembered as the guy who found joy and humor in all of life. That attitude was infectious and for that I am eternally grateful. The strength of his marriage to his beautiful wife was second to none; His faith an example for all to follow. Aunt Dorie, Terry, Larry, and family may God bring you comfort and peace in the coming days. We love you and will continue to lift you in prayer.
