He was the best great uncle,he was so funny. My favorite memory was having a bird seed fight from my aunt Angie’s wedding. We will miss him dearly. Rip UNCLE FRANKIE WE LOVE YOU
Frankie was so nice and funny. He was a worker for the church and Judy we will be praying for you and your family
Frankie was a character, a man who worked hard, loved food, and sports, and Elvis, but most of all loved his family. He was very proud of all his kids and grandkids, and loved get- togethers with friends and family. He will be missed by all who knew him.
Frankie was a special person. I always enjoyed picking on him about putting rice in the casseroles at our church potlucks knowing that he hated rice. No matter where we were if it was at church or out in a restaurant after church, you knew where Frankie was because you could hear him talking. He liked to compare the cost of our lunches afterward to see who paid the most.
Our sympathies to Judy and all of the family. Prayers for all of you during your time of grief.
