Elvia, Tabby, Angie & Pete,
When I found out that Uncle Frankie had passed my heart was broken. I had sudden flashback to when I was younger cooking out and swiming with Tabby in the peanut shaped pool. This 4th of July also brought back memories of Uncle Frankie blowing up a watermelon, its the little things in life that people will always remember. Those memories will always be with us...even stories that will be passed down to our own children. When someone leaves an impact on your life its forever. That is where my Uncle Fankie will always be, in my hear and memories. I hope that Tabby, Angie, Pete or Elvia is reading this feeling the same feeling that I feel right now. The feeling of family and togetherness.
I will always think of the Giangreco Family as a part of mine.
With the all the love in my heart.

Frankie,
This is the time of year I will miss you most. Your children Iam sure know what realy a cool guy you were ! ! All we did was talk on the phone, and even though I never met you face to face you always felt like one of my best friends. This is the kind of affect only great people can leave on others. I always felt no matter what that you told it the way it was. For me most I miss those 5:30 am phone calls about how you could not wait to get back to work. You were truly a good person, and not a day goes by I dont pray for your family. To Frankies family rember this FRANK WAS ONE OF THE GREAT ONES.
god bless

Dear Elvia, Tabs, Ang and Petey,

It will be the little things that you will remember, the quiet moments, the smiles, the laughter..
And although it's very hard right now, it will be the memories of these little things that will help you push away the pain and bring the smiles back again.

If when we pass away, we become stars in the sky, I know Mr. G. will be one of the brightest stars out there.
He will be missed by everyone who has met him and His charisma will always be alive in each of you.

With love,
Francesca
