Fank will be missed, he was kind and humble man, always willing to share anything with anyone. The greatest gift he gave me was friendship. We worked closely together. We would often eat together and share our personal stories. He had his own vinacular, with his way of telling a story, that could keep you entertained the whole way through.
Frank was always sure to think of everyone. He would always make sure we got a little something for the cleaning lady at Christmas. He would constantly do things like this.
He had a tough and gentle spirit at the same time.
I love you buddy, see you in heaven.
