Our son, Chris, has been a friend of Frank’s for many years. We heard many good things about him and his family. We are saddened to hear of his passing…
No words can take the pain away of losing a loved one. We will always appreciate him for having had a positive influence on our son’s life.
My deepest sympathies to Michelle, Jacob and Jeanette. How sad to hear about his passing, he’s in no pain no longer. He’s had trying days though, so glad you’ve had the love and support over this past year and then some. You all are so blessed with all the fabulous memories you’ve all shared together. Frank’s quite a guy, passionate to the top he so admired and love you all GREATLY. Rest easy now Frank and i want you all to know you’re in my heart and prayers. One day at a time for this is never easy, cherrishing him forever. Take Care of one another God Bless you all. Diane Soucy
I will always remember Uncle Frank as the outdoors men. I hardly ever saw him without a fishing pole! I know he will be missed but at he same time he is no longer suffering. Many prayers for his family and his soul! The sweet part about the timing is it was the day before his mom’s death anniversary. It’s like she was calling him home! Love you all!
