Betty --I just wanted to express how sorry I am to hear of your loss. Working for Frank and being a part of the Gepetto family was one of the happiest times of my life. Frank , Jimmy and Anthony were 3 of the best people that I have ever know. I wish you and you family the best in this time of sorrow.

Betty, I use to work for Frank at Geppettos Cafe. I am very sorry about your loss and to hear about Frank. I had the best times of life working and was very proud to be part of that team. Frank ran a terrific restaurant and looking at the competition and how things are done today, he was ahead of his time. I had spoken with Frank about a year ago about my idea for a restaurant and we were both excited on the phone talking about it. I had hoped to meet up with Frank not knowing the extent of his illness. On a happy note, Frank is a major fun memory in my mind and I will miss him very much. I set up a Geppetos cafe site on my facebook for people to post stories and memories and pictures. Dominick Sammarone
