Mr Frabotta was not only a great band director but a great music teach. He directed and me 3 yrs at St. Augustine HS 65-67. He will forever be in my memory.

Mr. Frabotta was my band director from 1970-1974 at St. Augustine HS. He would often play/practice swing music with me & we would switch between clarinet & sax instruments. Those personal experiences with "Hank Frabotta" made music class my favorite!

I remember Mr. Frabotta as dedicated to the boys at Saints. He cared and did a good job. May he rest in peace.

Mr. Frabotta was our marching band and concert bad leader while I was in the band at Saints from 1966 to 1970.

He was a wonderful instructor who took an individual interest in his students and....he taught me music. He taught music discipline without disciplining! He had a great manner and everyone respected him.

My genuine condolences to his family.

Thank you Mr. Frabotta for this most precious gift.

Mr Frabotta was my band director while I was at St Augustine High School 1970 - 1974. It always amazed me how many instruments he played well. He had a great positive influence on me as a musician. I ended up getting a degree in Music Composition from the California Institute of the Arts. Thank you Mr Frabotta for dedicating those thousands of hours of musical instruction. You're a great man.

Mr Frabotta was a very positive influence on my life ! He is the reason I am a drummer today , I was in the band 1970-73 at St Augustine High School , he taught me discipline and was even my drivers training instructor ! I remember he lived a very short distance from school , but would drive there anyway ! Thank you Henry , you will be missed by many ! I will never forget you sir !
