Angelo Fraticola Obituary

It will be 8 years in 10 days. I miss you everyday Grandpa. Wish you were here. Things are hard right now...My dad really needs some guidance from above. Please watch over him. Love you.

It's coming up on seven years since your passing. I miss you everyday Dad. May your soul and all the souls rest in God's peace. Much Love, Ang Jr (G)

Dad I felt your presence at Lisa'a softball game today. Somehow I knew you were sitting close to me. I miss our talks and rides together. Thanks for naming me after you. Missing you G.

I'm thinking bout you...Wish you were here. Love you

We have lost an important person in our lives, and have had the time to think about it. This guest book will be kept here forever but no one has written in it for a while. It's time to write my thoughts down having about 6 months to think about it now. Grandpa I miss you so much, this season is in memory of you. I'm gonna do it for you. You are the only reason I decided to come back to the team even after my coach told me to quit if I had a better chance with a different coach. I am going to bowl until I get the 300 you never got. It will be in the memory of you.

Thanksgiving is coming, it will be the first Thanksgiving without you. It will be hard to do. At least you are somewhere where you can eat the turkey, and cut and carve it. Our family will be spilt up this year. Instead of giving thanks for all the holidays we got to share with you they will remember the thanksgiving without you. We still have our memories no one can take that away from us. No one wants to celebrate anything anymore. You left a whole in my heart as well as my dad, mom, brother, and sister. I love you grandpa!!!

300 isn't just a number to me it's the goal I will meet for you.

Grandpa I probably am the only one who believes this but the sudden lose of you happened because it was meant to happen. No one can mess with faith. As sudden as death came to you, it will happen to everyone one day. I understand that now. Your time is your time. You are with God now, bowling on those stormy nights. I hear your strikes when I hear thunder. I hope you get that 300 up there!

300 Just for you

I love ya Grandpa and I'll miss you

Dad,

These past weeks have not been easy. I miss you and will never ever forget you. Thank's for everything. Joe, Pat and me are making sure mom is ok.I am keeping this book online for you. Love your son----- Angelo Jr.

To my grandpa...

I don't really know what I would say to you if I saw you again. You were the only grandpa I ever knew and somehow you filled the whole in my heart where my other grandpa's spot would be. I could never thank you enough for teaching me how to swim competitively at my cottage. I will never forget how you cared so much about my music. All that I can say is thanks for always pushing me to do my best and always caring. This year I made the top band at my highschool. I am one of 4 freshman. I will miss you dearly until I see you again in heaven. I can't wait to give you another back rub. I miss you grandpa. Watch over me. You are my guardian angel.

Angelo was a good father-in-law. Easy to get along with. Was slow to criticize and quick to support. I will miss my cat sniffing his head, his very funny full laugh, and how he always called for "Mair". Your sons feel lost without you..they lost a good friend. We miss you and love you.

Man i love you grampa you were the best! I hope all you are doing good. love nina

In respect of a previous mentor.I had the luck to work along side Angelo for many years,as numerous others at BC/BS.He was always willing to share his wisdom-

He will be missed

I had the honor of working with Angelo for more than 10 years at Blue Cross and Blue Shield. During the ten years, Angelo and I enjoyed breakfast in the cafeteria every morning. My prayers are with Marie and his entire family.

I worked with Angelo at Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois and he was a very nice and friendly supervisor to work with before he retired. I pray that GOD will give the family strength during this time.

I had the honor to meet Angelo when I bowled with friends. He was truly a wonderful person, always glad to help. I am happy to have known him and his lovely wife Marie. It was a pleasure to see him at the Moose! Angelo will be missed by many. Our sympathies to Marie and her family. - Judi and Bob Graf

OUR CONDOLENCES TO DEAR FRIENDS SUSAN AND ANGELO. JR. AND THE FRATICOLA FAMILY ON THE LOSS OF ANGELO FRATICOLA, SR.

My Simpathy is with my grandmother in this difficult time, and is also with my father and uncles. This is a very difficult time for us all. To mourn such a wonderful person like my grandfather. He was always there watching me bowl and I know that he will be watching from above, his spirit is still with me. I will miss him dearly. Bowling will never be the same without him. I don't know what else to say, but I will have fond memories of him forever. Especially when he would call my house looking for my dad. May God be with you Grandma, Uncle Ang, Uncle Joe, and Dad. I love you all Rest in Peace Grandpa
