I’m so glad I had the opportunity to meet him and help take care of him. I’ll definitely miss him saying what’s up gal when I would call him. Tiffany, Jason, and the rest of his family I will keep you in my prayers for the weeks and months to come.

Uncle Frankie was definitely one of a kind. He was always cutting up and keeping everyone laughing, if he wasn’t keeping us laughing then he had us on the edge of our seat with that wild driving of his. He was full of so much love and I don’t think he ever met a stranger because there was never a time that I’d run into him somewhere that he wouldn’t be talking to someone lol so I’d hug him and go on in the store or wherever it was I’d bump into him and say I’d catch him on my way out, but he’d still be talking to the same person plus a few other’s would be done joined in the conversation. He’s definitely going to be missed by many. Tiffany & Jason y’all were blesses having him as y’all’s father. Y’all are in my thoughts and prayers. I love y’all and here if y’all need anything at all.
