Frankie was a beautiful friend to my Mom and Dad, Lorraine and Robbie Robinson. Many celebration lunches and dinners were enjoyed with Frankie. Dad always looked forward to talks with Frankie as she loved to chat about current events and history and politics and he appreciated that "in a woman". In the mid 1990s Frankie, Mom and I carpooled to Maine to visit our respective friends. Car travel is a great time to share ideas and solve the problens of the world! She was a wonderful travel companion. My family and I eat at a gorgeous dining room table each day; it was purchased from Frankie (at such a "reasonable" cost that it really was a gift)and I know it was refinished by her husband, Ted. So Frankie has been a part of our family for many years and, even though she has moved on from her long and delightfully independent life here, she will continue to be a chersished part of our daily lives.
