“Frank was a kind and giving soul who truly cared about the wellbeing of others”, and I could not have said that any better. He was one of the most honest human beings I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with and I’ve always considered him to be a true friend. The memories of working with Frank will never be forgotten. Barb and I loved him dearly, and deeply regret the time lost not being able to see him more often. Rest in Peace my friend…Rest in Peace.
Frank was A Good Man,He will Be Missed By All Who Knew Him.
Frank was my soulmate for 38 years and he is in my thoughts and prayers constantly, his passing has left a void in my life,however,he is with me in spirit and I am thankful for the wonderful life we had together.
Frank was a great uncle and is truly missed. I visited him today at his final resting place, and it’s still very hard to believe that he’s no longer with us. Miss him very much.

Uncle Frankie, was like a dad to my sisters and I as we were growing up in Miami, when he lived with us. One of my fondest memories of Uncle Frankie was when he would take us and his sons fishing in the Florida Keys.
He was a true Miami “Dolphin’ fan. I
Dear Uncle Frankie, I will never forget the wonderful times my sisters and I had with you and the boys in Miami. I will never forget you.
Love always,
Margie
