View all 30 ReflectionsMy uncle Frank was a wonderful husband, father and uncle. He loved his family so much! His laugh, his smile, his patience and his giving heart will forever be remembered. One of my last sweet memories was the day his daughter, my cousin Selena made her First Communion. He was just beaming and his smile was bigger than ever. You will forever be in our hearts Uncle Frank.
