Frank quickly became family to all of us on Fahey Second Floor at Loretto. It seems so strange to see Room 293 empty now. Thank you for sharing Frank with us for the past four years.

To the Inserra Family,
My deepest sympathies go to all of you. Frank was a wonderful patient that both myself and my mother had the pleasure of taking care of and getting to know while we worked at the NY Heart Center. He will be greatly missed. Even my daughter who only knew Frank as " The Fruit Man" as Frank used to bring in fresh fruit to take home to her! My prayers are with you all.

"Mr. Inserra":
Having you for a client was, most of all, having you for a "friend"...a very, very, dear and special friend. I will forever treasure our relationship that has encompassed thirty years.
Thank you for your smile, your honesty, your sincerity, and, most of all, for the privilege of calling you "Mr. Inserra".
We will miss you always...

Steve,
I was saddened to learn of the loss of your father.
Some of my fondest memories of your dad were when he would come into John Rinaldi's office and just sit and talk. He was always so good to me. Frank was a kind man with a big heart.
You and your family are in my prayers.

My condolences to the family for the loss of your father. Frank was a fun, loving, strong man that I had the pleasure of knowing. Frank was a comfort to see when you came to work and it was all strangers...I will miss him but his memory will live on.

I took care of Frank at Loretto for some time when he was there the very first time for rehab. I also then assisted him when he went home with his medications and other things he needed. I cared for him for a few years even when he first moved into Greenpoint and he became a great part of mine and my 9 year old son's life. Myself and my son are sad to hear of his passing but am very fortunate to have met and become very close to such a wonderful and caring man. He will be deeply missed and loved. I send my deepest sympathy and prayers to his family in this time of sorrow. You all will be in my thoughts and prayers.

My thoughts & prayers go out to his family. The only thing that really helps you get through this , is knowing he does not have to suffer anymore. And remembering all the happy memories.
Frank was a very kind & giving man. My son Cary thought the world of him & and I know how much he will be missed.

It has been my pleasure to know and interact with Frank over the last five years. I also was saddened to see his decline in health over the last two years, and no doubt his remaining family was even more affected.
May the memory of his earlier years be what comes to mind for all that loved him.
