Frank, having been my husband for almost 20 years and the father of our three children Dorajeanne, Frank Paul and Tonia, was a good man and father, grandfather, etc. and he remained a friend to me all throughout our lives as did his wonderful family. (Former wife Hannah Barbara Basile) rest in peace.
