I had not seen Frank for many years and was sad to hear he was so ill. I am grateful to his many friends and family who cared for him, especially Maureen and Robert whom I have known for many years and who have that same sweet disposition that Frank had.  When we worked at NYL Frank made Christmas ornaments which I still have and which will always remind me of him.

Frank was a sweetest person I have known; I met him about six years ago at our Westchester site. I feel like I have lost a very good friend and a person who never failed to put a smile on my face no matter how I was feeling.  I will miss Uncle Frank; it hurts just thinking about that he is no longer with us.  GOD BLESSES HIS SOUL.    Rao Ahmed

Frank was a wonderful co-worker who became a dear friend to me.  I will miss the gleam in his eyes, and the sound of his voice as he shared stories on just about anything in a way that only he could.  I especially loved to hear his stories about growing up in Brooklyn. He was a joy to be around. My condolences to his family and friends.  May God comfort and bless you.

I have know Frank only for 6 years but, feels like I have known him much longer. He could put a smile anytime, even on a total strangers face!

I knew Frank from NYL.  When he would stop by to chat - he always put a smile on my face.  I have been praying for him ever since I learned that he had this terrible disease.  I am truly sorry that that he is gone and I will miss not seeing him.  We need more good people like Frank on this earth!

With deepest sympathy to Frank's family and friends.  I met Frank when we were re-located to WNY.  As I got to know Frank, I enjoyed his humerous approach to everyday life situations.  He made us laugh, which helped us all.  I also admired his gift for telling stories.  Those "blue eyes" seemed to twinkle, once he had captured you with this wit, charm and mischievous antics.  I feel blessed to have been included in Frank's circle of friends and will always remember our friendship.

I knew "Uncle Frankie" at NYL for over 6 years and in those years, he has never failed to put a smile on my face.  He is such a nice and sweet man.  Salt of the earth...I can assure anyone that Saint Peter is hearing stories from Frank now...he will dearly missed.

I knew Frank for many years; we became friends back in the '70s. He was a sweet and good person and will be missed.
