  • To Richetta, Cathy, Vinny & Tony, words cannot express how sorry we are for your loss. Frank was such a kind and genuine man who will be missed by so many. I always looked forward to spotting him outside on my route to work as he would give me the biggest smile and would always wave hello when I drove by. Frank would always take the time to walk over to chat with me while I was outside at work. I always appreciated how often he checked in to ask about my mom’s health and how my family was doing. His kind nature and ability to always think of others first truly did not go unnoticed. Our most sincere and heartfelt condolences go out to all of you during this difficult time. May you find comfort as you reflect on the many special memories you shared together. You are always in our hearts. ❤️ - Posted by: Maria, Tanner and Natalina Stepnuk (Cousin) on: Nov 20, 2021

  • Richetta, Cathy, Tony, Vinny and family We are deeply saddened of Frank's passing. Frank was a man with a heart of gold, always thinking of others before himself. When Frank would go to the hospital for bloodwork and treatments, I would see him there when I was going for my treatments. Frank would always give me encouraging words. He would always remind me to be strong and never give up. He would call Armando in the evening just to hear how I was feeling. His words were always comforting and gave me strength as I was going through my treatments. We will truly miss him. May his peaceful memories give you strength and comfort. With lots of love to you all - Posted by: Maria, Armando, Francesco Ferlaino (Cousins) on: Nov 19, 2021

  • Hoping all the fond memories of Frank help you through this difficult time. Chuck and I will never forget how generous Frank was with his time. For the many rides home after work (even when we got lost in Bridgwater) him helping Chuck tile our kids’ bathroom, sharing some very strong homemade wine, taking Chuck for a ride in his fancy car down Corydon, playing indoor soccer with him when he broke his leg to name a few of the memories we will always cherish! He had a heart of gold and will be remembered fondly. Love to the whole family! - Posted by: Barb and Chuck Cadick (Friends) on: Nov 19, 2021

  • I have many fond memories of Frank, always there for family & friends. I loved all my conversations with him, especially those based around business and those he shared with Joe about soccer. Frank always had the best way of making someone feel valued, no matter what the group setting was he would always make sure he took the time to talk to everyone and truly was listening to those he was conversing with. Frank, your Journey on earth ended too soon! Your kindness, sense of humor and passion for soccer will be missed.
