Vonda, I am so very sorry to hear about Frankie's sudden passing. Was told tonight, Sunday 5th. Frankie and I had some great chats in the back Dock over the many years I worked there. I don't know if you'll remember but I was the one who hugged both of you when you came in to work after his bike accident, a good few years ago now, as he looked such a bruised mess and you were looking a bit stunned and in shock still. Take each day and emotion as it comes, and be kind to yourself. The tears will slow and become less frequent in time and though the hurt will still be there you will be able to smile and laugh as you remember and are reminded of things he said and did. Hugs to you again today, Rachel McLean (former Warehouse team member)

My condolences to Frankie's family. I only knew Frankie for a short time,when I worked with him doing click and collects at Riccarton. For me he was a lovely crazy guy. He made my days wonderful. He really loved his cars, always telling me about his beloved car. You left a great memory with me. Rest peacefully Franky.
