My deepest condolences. I am saddened to hear of your loss. Frankie was a dear cousin and a great friend to many. I remember him at many occasions throughout my life. I didn't know of his passing until today. I would have been there to be with you. All my love,
Cousin Dolly

Cousin Frankie was always a fun loving family man who cared deeply for his family. He was always ready to get everyone together and talk about what all were doing.

So very sorry for your loss.
