So sorry to hear of Frank’s passing. My sincerest condolences to the Marcelli family and loved ones.
Frank was a very nice man. We will miss him.
I was so sorry to hear of Frank’s passing. I have been sitting in front of Frank for 3 years, while having dialysis, and we would talk for hours while receiving treatments. He made my transition to dialysis more bearable, and we shared stories of our lives, talked about restaurants we had been to, and so much more. We had lots of laughs as well. Frank is already missed by so many of us at the dialysis clinic. He’s now in God’s hands, and will be well taken care of. My condolences to the entire Marcelli family.
