I met Frank and his five children almost three years ago. Frank and I had an immediate bond and he even called me his "sixth cow" soon after I met him. He was a loving man and always had a big smile and sparkle in his eyes. He was blessed by the love and support of Frankie, Tony, Lorraine, Cathy and Linda. It was a pleasure to meet such a loving family. My thoughts and prayers are with each of you.
