Dear Leona , Michael, Simone, and Gina
My fond memories of Frank was that he was always smiling and laughing. As we grew up he was always the one at the table who had an opinion just like uncle Frank. He seemed to have a life style of “living life to it’s fullest”. His deep LOVE for his family was obvious, It showed in his every day actions. We will miss him but comforting to know that he is not suffering anymore but enjoying his new life ti it’s fullest. We 525022809 that Uncle Alex, aunt Hazel Johnny and Jeanne all greeted him at the wonderful gates of Heaven along with St.Peter and they all walked together to meet our LORD. I am sure when he sat down next to our LORD that the conversation was great and then Frank being Frank asked Hey where is the nearest lake, I want to put the boat in and do some relaxing. Please accept our sympathy. Love Chuck, Maria,and Cierra Monico.
Leona, just learned of
Frank’s passing and am deeply saddened. My sincere condolences to you on your loss.
