Frankie Root Obituary

April 24, 1960-March 8,2018 Our beloved Frankie from Everett, WA, has joined his sister, Jeanie on March 8, 2018 in Aberdeen, WA. He is survived by his loving wife, Lindy, daughter, Mikki; granddaughters, Kileigha and Kennedy; three fur babies and many family members. Frankie loved his family and closest friends. He was a creative loving, hardworking, outdoors man who would help anyone. He got to spend the last of his days eating sweets by the ocean which he loved doing. Gone but never forgotten. "A limb has fallen from the family tree that says grieve not for me remember the best times the laughter the song the good life i lived while i was strong"

So sad you are gone. I hadn't see him in about 9 years :( wish I had know he was in Ocean Shores I was there the weekend before he passed. I have so many great memories from our days when we all lived in Everett.
Love You, Sis

I am sorry to hear of Frankie passing away. I am happy to see that he got to spend the last few days of his life at the Ocean. Frankie was a good friend of mine even though it has been a few years since we seen each other. I will always remember the times of us camping up at Skykomish. RIP Frankie and give my dad (Louie) a BIG hug. I will always miss you. Love Peter & Marge

Frankie was a sweetheart and would give the shirt off his back to anyone who may of needed it. I have known Frankie for almost 40 years, he was a true best friend, almost like a brother to me at times and just a real genuine, honest guy. Him and Louie got along like two pea's in a pod and always had us smiling and laughing. Lindy was his true love and he loved her so much just as she did him. I have many memories of Frankie from the time we were young until we got older and him and Lindy got together. Many fond memories of holidays spent together, camping up in Skykomish. Frankie will be missed dearly by all that knew him. He always had this mischievous smile on his face, like what are you planning now "Spankie"? I use to call him that. RIP Frankie, be sure and give Louie a BIG hug for me. Your really in a better place not suffering any more. Love you, Tammy & Family
