Suzy, Alberta, Dave,
My deepest and sincerest condolences. I have known Frankie for so many years its embarrassing lol. I loved him like a little brother and I was stunned to hear the news. I am sorry I didn't make the funeral but my dad is in the lodge and his health is already threatened. My heart aches for the loss of Frankie he was the kind of guy to give you the shirt off his back if you needed it. Again I am so profoundly sorry for your loss. Take care. Hugs to all three of you. :-) Please take care and stay safe.

Hi,my name is Keri, Frank and I went to high school together at Herman Fawcett secondary school, and that's where he became my first love lol... We remained friends into adulthood and always seem to find each other wherever we were living or whatever was going on in our lives! Frank was very dear to me and always will be! I'm heartbroken that I just discovered this online today about his passing, he was kind, generous, funny and incredibly giving! He had a huge heart. Rest in paradise Frank XOXO
