Frankie was a quiet young man, but once he opened up to you, he was an amazing and personable friend, with a big heart, willing to give you the shirt off his back, unless it was his favorite shirt. He could talk for hours about gaming, anime, and anything DC, or Marvel. He was a simple person , with simple wants and needs, preferring to spend most of his days, with his online gaming community, and his pets. His love for his dogs, Hendrix Jay, Lilith Rose, Fozzy Bear, Gypsy Moon, Little Bear, Pandora Elizabeth, and his cat, Abigail (Abner), was displayed many times a day, with treats, affection, and care.

Frankie had a deep love for online gaming, and collector card games. Naruto, Magic the Gathering, Pokemon, Dragon ball Z, Mass effect, Minecraft, and Destiny2, were among his favorites. He also had a love for anime, and spent many hours on YouTube, watching gaming streams, and various gaming content creators.

He went through many trials, throughout his life, and only grew stronger with each one. He rarely complained, and always tried to live in the moment, not letting the past determine his actions, and the way he lived his life. Everyone who met him, liked him, and those lucky enough to become his friend, loved him. He will be missed, but always remembered, by all who knew him.
