My deepest condolences to the Gannon family. I am so sad to hear of Mr. Gannon’s passing. He was like a second father to me. I have fond memories of all of our talks during my years of working at the market. He was such a kind and caring man. Much love to the family.

I was so sorry to learn of Frank's passing. He was a great person with a great sense of humor. I spent many hours talking to him at the counter in the market. We touched on many topics serious and frivolous solving the worlds problems. No matter what we always ended laughing about it. I will miss his unique way of observing the world, his friendly attitude and his laugh. God Bless you all. I will remember all of you in my prayers.

I was so so sad to read of Frank's passing. He was always such a gentle, kind man; and I always hoped it would be him to wait on me at the Fairgrounds. I'm sure you must have so many wonderful memories, and it is my hope and prayer that those memories and God's great love for you will see you through this sad time.
Most sincerely,
Judy and Tom Burkholder

Uncle Corky, was my favorite uncle! I have so many wonderful memories with my uncle Corky, that I will forever hold dear in my heart. Thank you for being the best uncle, and a best friend to my mom. You were always so funny and loving, and each summer I always loved to hang out with you growing up. I loved our talks, sitting in your kitchen talking for hours, even our long chats over the phone. I can still hear your laugh, and you calling me kiddo. Your smile and laugh lit up the room. I love you and miss you, forever and always. RIP uncle Corky.
Sending my condolences to the whole Gannon family and friends. Frank will be deeply missed.

Corky (nickname to family), I will always have such happy memories from my childhood through adulthood of you. One of the lyrics to one of the songs you always sang, was "put the lime in the coconut and drink it all up" will forever remind me of you - always so happy walking around singing this song. You were a kind, compassionate man, with excellent advice when asked your opinion. Your sense of humor and laughter always brought a smile to my face. As I grew into an adult, you always had kind words and always sincere when it came to Bob, Jared, and Nicole - we will all miss you. I'm sure there is a special place in Heaven for you; we truly were blessed to be family. Love you always and until we meet again - Stephie, Bob, Jared, Sara, Nicole & Brian.
We send our thoughts and prayers for strength to Irene, Adam, Alex, Lisa, Danielle, Tyler, and Sierra during this difficult time. We love you all!
