My sincere condolences go out to the Casasanta family and close friends in the loss of your dear beloved one. May the hope found in Gods' word out weigh the grief you feel. (1Thessalonians 4:13,14)

My condoleles to your family. Frank and my late dad, Carm Marzullo, we're good friends many years ago. They worked together at the Prudential Insurance Company.
My parents so highly of both Frank and Florence that they were my Godparents (Frank and I share the same birthday). Time passes and people loose contact with each other and unfortunately I hadn't seen them for longer than I can remember. I do remember them as kind and gentle people.
I will keep your family in my prayers at this most difficult tine.

Frank was a wonderful man. I have thought about him often. I worked with him at MJ Peterson and Frank took in a cat that I rescued. He will be missed. Prayers to his family. God Bless

Frank was a great guy! Always upbeat and smiling. He was fun to be with and just hang out to watch a hockey game or just sit and talk.I will miss him very much. I've grown to be a better person having known him. See you on the other side...
