Truly a loss that one can never prepare for…my heart feels sad but thankful l that he left a Legacy of his Life..
His love for his family is evident in knowing Frank – Laura & Frankie.. I am forever grateful to the family he gave to me and my family.. Frank – Mechanic of Life and Love as a husband and best friend to Laura…who made sure he had a little bit of Heaven while staying at their home serving his favorite Italian meals..decorating the guest room right down to finding a perfect “cloud like” mattress for him to sleep on. Frankie … He is proud of all you are ….your Love for him and sharing in his passion for cars always brought a smile to his face.
Heaven has gained a new Mechanic…-“If clouds have engines he is behind the wheel… driving the biggest race track where there are no speed limits or cars to repair”
Our thoughts are with you all… never to be forgotten always in our hearts.
Much Love from Kevin – Michelle & Maverick
