Dear Maria & girls:

I want to send my thoughts, prayers & love to you all.

I have fond memories of Frank & his great sense of humor , but most importantly his love for you.  

I will continue to pray for your healing & strength.

My Heart and Love goes out to Maria, Angelina and Gabriella. We have all lost a wonderful Guy. Frank was the kind of person that anyone met and instantly loved. I was proud to call him my son! He loved his wife and those two girls so very much. When we talked I heard it in his voice the love and enjoyment and fun he had with them. His Dad (POP) would have been so proud of him and his family. Frankie, you will be greatly missed and loved always.... Lisa Davis-Case

To my good friend Frank--

Thank you for showing us all your passion as a husband and being a dad, standing up against the mundane and living life as a thinker and individual, that life is absurd and hilarious, and that men can be very sensitive and very strong at the same time. You were, and always will be, the marker that defines my capacity to be a real man, dad, husband, and citizen of the universe. I'll never forget our friendship and kinship--I love you and your family Frank. 

See you on the other side?

Hi ladies. I live in Jax, and only managed to maintain my relationship with Frank online, and by bumping into him ( and the little ones) occasionally. I still consider Frank a good friend. Based on what I have seen in reactions since this started, that is something he inspired in just about everyone. I will try to be brief. Dark times, I am sure. You are all strong. I would think Frank would be the first to hope you find the sunshine again, together. Wishing hope and better days for the future.

Many prayers of love and comfort are being offered for y'all from me! I am so sorry for your loss!

Dear Maria, Angelina, and Gabriella, 

We feel fortunate to have had a chance to get to know you this past year, and to have been inspired by the love, fun, and warmth that you and Frank spread around you. Frank and your whole family has touched us immensely. He had a fun and ease about him that each of us fell in love with. He dared to be the person who stood out while showing love for his family. When we spent a day at Legoland with you and the robotics team a couple of weeks ago, we asked him what he wanted to do and he said that he didn't care as long as his girls had a good time. At the lego robotics competition, he got down in a split and showed kids and adults alike what fun looks like. He really was a kid magnet! We are so deeply heartbroken that Frank left this world too early. Please know that we are here for you and hope to continue to get to know you better over the years to come and continue to share memories with you about your husband and dad. 

Love and hugs, 
Peter, Alexandra, Isabella, Angelica, and Madeleine Schonning

What can I say about Frank that everyone doesn't already know?  He was by far the most unparalleled personality I have ever had the pleasure of knowing.  You could have a conversation with him about something completely unmeaningful, silly, and probably ridiculous, yet walk away and that moment was the most meaningful thing to happen to you all day.  His absurd humor, pictures with action figures, crazy selfies.  His passion about all things geeky and Cowboys football.  Sending me links to stream the games that weren't on tv and chatting about the game.  I will always think of Frank when I see Batman, Star Trek, or watch our Boys play.  I'll always have a beer for you, buddy.  I'm not saying goodbye though.  You will always live on in my memories...............

My heart goes out to the family and many friends and y'all have been in my prayers ,I've never meet him or y'all but I witness the horrible event that will be with me forever !!! God bless

Frank was an awesome dad and husband. Lord, please take and keep his soul and bring comfort to Maria, Angelina, and Gabriella knowing that he will forever be their angel watching over them.

The first thing that comes to my mind when I think of Frank is Love.  He loved his wife and kids more than anything in the world.  He loved his family and friends, and he loved to make people laugh.  Frank, you are going to missed, my friend.  To Maria, Angelina, and Gabriella, you are all loved so much and we send to you our heart felt condolences.

There is a quote that fits your Frank perfectly, The best thing a father can do for his children is to love their mother. It was obvious to anyone who knew all of you how much he loved being Maria's husband. He adored her. He held her up. Angelina and Gabriella, I hope you will always take comfort in your parent's love story. You two are the product of that. Your father took such pride in being a great father to you both. Should you ever need to hear stories, I think all of your classmates and friends can share of the times he chaperoned field trips, ran alongside them on school fun runs or field days, waited with them for their school days to begin, got goofy with all of you at a princess birthday party, dressed up for free comic books... He was so good to your friends simply because he knew you loved them. You're father was a better father in his too short time with you than some are in their entire lives. Our family loves yours very much and we hope that we can convey how much we hurt for all of you. We also hope that as time passes you will take comfort in knowing that he was yours. He left you the gift of a close knit and loving family. You were and are his three kind, beautiful and strong women. All our love, Sandra, Aaron, Mia, Alexa and Lucas Chetelat

There are so many wonderful things that can be said about Frank. His quick wit, his charm, his wonderful smile. I love that he made you feel like he'd known you forever from the first day you met. But what I really admire was the love he showed for his family. He adored his wife and children and it was so clear to anyone watching just how proud he was of Maria, Angelina and Gabriela. I have no doubt that he will be watching over you for the rest of your lives.

Frankie, know that you were loved and are remembered. The miles kept us distant but you are always in my heart.

I can't even come up with words to express how much my heart aches for you and the whole family.  In my mind, there will never be a greater father, husband or friend than Frank. He has left such a huge footprint in this world.  

Thank you, Frank, for the love and devotion you gave to Maria, Angelina and Gabriella.  I know they were your everything.  Thank you for giving my own girls a blueprint for the type of person they should aspire to love and be loved by.  We will forever remember your energy and smile. Also, thank you for bringing Maria to surprise me for my birthday that one year. You guys slept over in my cat hair house and I'll never forget you waking up the next day and your face being all red and swollen.  I had no idea you were allergic to cats but you knew we had cats and that didn't matter.  You wanted to make Maria happy and help make my 40th birthday special.  

Love to Maria, Angelina, Gabriella and your entire family.

Maria, Angelina and Gabriella. May god bless you always. You will always be a part of my family and I love you all very much. I am here for all of you forever and always. Frank was very special and we can always share good stories and memories with each other. He will always love you and will always be with you in your hearts and mind. You are forever in my heart, my special ladies.

So many memories of Uncle Frank from the first time I met him. His smile and personality. Prayers and love to you and the girls and just our family entirely.

I am so, so sorry for your loss. Frank was a wonderful person who left this earth far too soon. You and the girls are in my thoughts.

My sincere condolences to Frank's friends and family.  He will be missed, but never forgotten.

You and your loved one will be in my thoughts and prayers. My heart goes out to you and the girls.

Maria, my heart goes out to you and your sweet girls. https://www.facebook.com/heartofthemoment/posts/10209420071355875

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this most difficult time.  My heart breaks for you. Just know that the Axson Family will always be there for you and your girls.

I love how when we met Frank he made it seem like we had known him forever. He was sweet and funny and will be truly missed. Your family is in our thoughts now, and always.
Sandy, Miguel, Connor and Addison

Maria, You and the girls have occupied my thoughts and prayers for days. I can't imagine what you're going through but I know that you're a strong, brave woman who can get through this with and for your beautiful daughters. Take care of you and know that I'll continue to pray for you all.

The love & devotion Frank had for Maria & the girls set the bar for every husband and father who knew him. The memories they will always have will be filled with happiness & love. We will miss you Frank & remember you always!!!

Maria, Angelina and Gabriella,
I am heartbroken over this.  Praying you find comfort and peace during this difficult time. Frank will be missed and was loved by many.  I will never forget him standing on the basement stairs belting out Kenny Rogers songs or playing "Bosley" to our Charlie's Angels. 
 Rest in Peace, Cousin.  Love  and {HUGS} to you all.

Frank's love for his girls (including his wife) was so obvious, even people that didn't know him could see it.  Family photos showed how proud he was to be Maria's husband and the girls' daddy.  
My heart is breaking for Maria and the girls.  I pray for their peace, and for God's loving touch upon them.  
xoxo

Maria,  I am praying that you, your girls and all who knew your husband find some peace in days to come.  My heart breaks for you all at this time and I am thinking of you as the journey through this sad time begins.  Time may not completely heal your heart, but, I promise it does ease some of the pain.  Many hugs to you and your girls!

God's peace and comfort in your loss.
Alice and Baird Fulghum (friends of Tony Lopez)
