To the Orlando family,
I attended Father McDonald high school with Frank and was in the class of '78.I was shocked and saddened to hear that Frank had passed away.I had the honor of meeting Frank in 2006 when he attended a BBQ/golf tournament with some of our fellow classmates and spent some time with him catching up on old times.I am also glad that we had a photo taken of us.My thoughts and prayers are with his family during this difficult time.

Dear Orlando Family,
I am shocked and saddened to hear this news today. I knew Frank through the band of brothers that is UNB Rugby, past and present. Frank was a good friend to me and a credit to himself, his family and his origins. I am honoured to have known him.

Frank old boy,
After all these years I have never forgotten you. You were one of the toughest flankers I have ever played with on the rugby pitch and one of the nicest blokes I have ever laughed with in the pub. This world will not be the same without you mate. :-)

It is with great sadness that I heard of Frank's passing. As a curmudgeon of UNB rugby I knew Frank from skinny minny rookie to veteran hairy "gorilla".
His great smile, ready laugh and gentle spirit endeared him to us all.
I look forward to running wind sprints and sharing the campfire with him when we meet again.
Sincere condolences from my family to all the Orlando family and friends.

Dear Sophie, Danny and Kim,
John and I were so shocked to hear the tragic news about Frank. Please accept our deepest condolences for your sad loss and extend them to your family and Frank's children.
I have very fond memories of cousin Frank's teasing and joking during my many visits to your home when we were younger and I will miss his mischievous smile.
You are all in our thoughts and prayers.
Love, Linda Hapak and John Serafini

To Everyone in Frank's family and Circle of Friends,
We will be thinking of you all as you remember a wonderful man during the visitation and service over the next few days. It's truly incomprehensible to think that he's gone.
Frank lit up the room with his warmth, laughter and wicked sense of humour.
He was an incredibly loyal and supportive friend and "brother from another mother" to my brother Jamie Hooper and our family (The Barrett - Hooper family) will treasure our memories of great times at our cottage with Frank. He would give you the shirt off your back and do anything to help a friend. We will really miss him.
Above all, for Frank, everything he did in his life was for his kids; to help them, support them and take care of them. He was a wonderful father and they will carry that certain knowledge in their hearts forever.
His sudden loss seems hard to understand right now, but we hope and pray that over time we will all come to feel that the loss of Frank far too early will be overshadowed by the greater gift of having known him at all.
- On behalf of the wider
Barrett/Hooper family

I am shocked and saddened to hear the tragic news about Frank. I went to F.M.C.H.S. with Frank and although we didn't really keep in touch (except through my Mom who lives accross the road)I always considered him a friend. We had a lot of laughs in the day. It's a sad day for anyone who had the good fortune of knowing Frank and my thoughts are with all who loved him.

To all of you who grieve Frank's terrible loss,
Though you were all so far apart, I know through many conversations with Kim and Sophie just how much Frank meant to you and your families. He will leave a terrible hole your heart that time may help heal, but never entirely take away. Our thoughts are with you during this terrible time and will continue to be as you enter a new chapter of your lives without your cherished son, brother and father.
