Tributes
"I will forever remember fun and fellowship with Frankie "the professional eater" (his words) who always brought more to the table than he took away. It was always my joy to pull up the Scripture for him on his mobile app so he could follow along with the message at church."
"Frankie, It was only yesterday when you were the young kid at Cantisano Foods. The young happy, innocent, kind, sweet, smiling kid. The years brought marriage, kids, other jobs and life happened. It was all a lifetime ago, yet only yesterday. We are sure that you are walking with the angels, dogs, family and friends. Our thoughts, prayers, and deepest sympathy are with your family and friends. Til we meet again, rest in peace Frankie. Mark & Debi List"
"Frankie when you get the happy hunting grounds the snow will be fresh and the game plentiful, trust me all your good hounds and past friends will be waiting for you. May God smile on you bless your family. Heavenly chases are always long with very few checks so sit by the fire and listen because I am certain the voices of the hounds ring out through the heavens Frankie is here!!! Jim Z"
