I knew frank as a kid as I helped my father doing flooring. I always loved knowing everything that was going on with the project outside of what I was there to do. I feel blessed to be able to know him the way I did. Truly a great man!

There are many memories I have of working with Frank! Our daughter and soon to be be son in law moved to Phoenix 2022 and we met while they were buying their house. We all quickly became fast friends and Frank became "uncle Frank" ! Any problem or issue that would come up for our kids, I would tell them to call Uncle Frank! Frank would always know what to do or tell them who to go work with. He was amazing and a gift! Having a daughter so far away, it gave my husband and I lots of comfort to know Uncle Frank was a phone call away to "fix it" or tell us who to work with! I am and always will be thankful for meeting Frank on inspection day! He made my life and my family's so much safer and comforting. Uncle Frank will be truly missed. He was a great professional and friend.

My favorite memory of Frank is when I asked for his daughter's hand in marriage. We were out to dinner with him and Julie and I knew I wanted to spend my life with Emily and I could not ask her until I had his blessing. Frank was always incredibly kind to me. He may have forgot my name a few times and called me "Fritz," but honestly, after getting to know him, that was just authentically him. He was this raspy voiced Italian man who you could picture being in one of the Godfather films. We shared a love for music and musical instruments. At dinner, I asked if we could step to the side and talk. We walked over to a patio and I asked him. He smiled largely and in that deep raspy voice said, "Of Course!" I could tell he had a hard time keeping the secret the rest of dinner. I am so blessed to have known this man and am so grateful he gave me his blessing. He will forever be missed and forever be loved. Chris

My favorite childhood memory of my dad is probably him turning on Phil Collins, cranking the music up in the living room, and dancing around with us. Those are the moments that still make me smile. When I got married I chose You’ll be in my arms for my daddy daughter dance because Phil Collins will always remind me of my dad. As I got older, he continued to show up for me in so many ways. When I moved into my very first apartment, he bought me furniture to help make it feel like home and even went shopping for it with me. He and Julie welcomed my puppy, Bella, into their home and gave her the love and care she deserved. If I had a question about my house, he always had the answer. If he couldn’t fix it himself, he’d say, “I’ll send one of my guys,” and somehow everything would get taken care of. I wish I had more memories and more time with him, but I am incredibly grateful for the last eight months we had together. We made it a point to meet almost every week for breakfast or lunch, just to sit, talk, and spend time together. Those simple moments will forever be some of my most treasured memories. I will forever be thankful for that extra time. It is something I will carry with me for the rest of my life.
