Took me several re-reads for me to grasp the reality of Jims news. I am
saddened so much by this news as Frank and I have traded many e-mails as he
tried to teach me spridget related stuff along with carpentry stuff. We
have TRULY lost a giant in our community. His death really brings home that
we never know when our time is up on this earth and that our actions impact
far more than we think. Prayers and strength go out for Diane and the
family. The weeks ahead for them will be so very hard and will require many
days and nights of thought to somehow realize that God may have a greater
calling he needs Frabk to help him with now.
Gods speed Frank. You will not be forgotten. Today really sucks!!

It is with heavy heart and tears in my eyes that I write this. I just got
off the phone with Frankie Clarici. They are still pretty much in shock but
he told me that he had just returned from the hospital. Frank Clarici, the
dean of Spridgets, suffered a heart attack and passed away today. I will
try to keep everyone informed as funeral plans proceed.
God Speed, Frank. I miss you already....
