Sean, Jimmy & to all of the Dillion Family: I am deeply saddened at the loss of your father & husband. I will miss talking to Frank about the good old days and to all of the memories. To me personally he was a legend, a friend, and a very funny man. For instance I made the mistake years ago and asked Frank if he could get my son a job. Two days later Frank gets him a job and for the next 6 months my house smelled of onions from the steak and hoagie factory. Frank, May you rest in peace and again for your friendship. You will be surely missed but never forgotten. Leo Merrigan and family.
