RIP Frankie.

I loved reading his posts on all the forums. I didn't always agree but he had a great passion in his beliefs and that I admired. May he rest in peace. My prayers go out to his family. He is probably now bending the ears of our country's founders about how they SHOULD have written the 2nd ammendment.

I have missed, and will continue to miss his posts.

RIP

I'll miss him as well. His posts were always with the passion of a convert to Texana.

Most of the time I found Frankie to be abrasive, annoying, argumentative, bombastic, caustic, educated, experienced, honest, illogical, informed, intelligent, knowledgeable, logical, obnoxious, opinionated, passsionate, stubborn and unyielding.
That's why his posts were so interesting. He was never boring, that's for sure.

RIP Frankie

He was the only person I've known, in the virtual sense of knowing people on a Message Board, that had taken Massad's classes and had the man's phone number.
I always felt that added some credibility to some of the topics he spoke about, being that he was quoting, or near quoting, someone who I have a great deal of respect for.

Our prayers go to the friends and family. Via con dios Frankie!

The video tribute was touching, especially his interaction with the little girl.

His posts, when taken together, provide insight into the man and his beliefs. To certain family members, they would be an invaluable time capsule of information. Chances are, his immediate next of kin do not know of their existence.

My father passed away when I was 16. I know his genealogy, his lifetime of military service and his interests in photography because I have done much research trying to get to know the man. Unfortunately, I do not know, and never will know, his thoughts. In Frankie's case, at least as it relates to his passion for the RKBA, his thoughts could be read by the next generation. Would it be possible to extend an invitation to them, if they so desired, to retrieve the information?

Yep, it's a sad day to learn of the passing of a fellow supporter of the cause...

Never had a single personal difference with him, and the differences we had were mainly surface in nature and helped us both develop our knowledge and opinions in a constructive way...That we always agreed upon behind the scenes...

He would tell us to keep up the good fight...That I intend to honor...
