Lo zio Frank lo ricordo come un uomo di grande dignità In lui emergeva uno spiccato amore per la famiglia, per i parenti e gli amici. Cercava sempre di mediare e risolvere i problemi delle persone a lui vicine. Sempre disponibile e con la battuta pronta e con un forte senso dell'humor per sdrammatizzare. Che
zio Frank possa continuare anche lassù ad essere la stessa bella persona che sei stata in terra. Hai lasciato in tutti noi che ti abbiamo conosciuto un bellissimo ricordo di te .
Che tu possa riposare in pace
Vicini al dolore della moglie ,dei figli e dei nipoti porgiamo le più sentite condoglianze Anna Maria, franco , Nadia e Luciano
