So sorry for your loss. We never personally met, but Frankie and I connected on Ancestry.com and communicated quite a bit. Sharing pictures, we were trying to match up her husband's family with mine. She knew so much about her family's history. So sad...

I have such fond memories of Frankie at James Lick High School football & basketball season leading cheers with Ronette & Charlene - The 3 musketeers. I will always remember her so young, beautiful inside & out. Once a COMET, always a COMET! Our shining comet in the sky, I will always look up for the brightest, shinest light! Always in our hearts, never forgotten. My sincere condolences.

Frankie has been a friend since elementary school. I always remember her as a gentle, intelligent person with a flare for creating and recognizing beauty. I think it must have been wonderful to be one of her children.  She would make sure they had everything they needed with care and love.  My prayers go out to the family and friends. She will be remembered fondly! Go Comets!

To hear of Frankie's release from our world is heartbreaking. My fond memories are only from Linda Vista where all the Slackers first met. Frankie was no slouch, she was a ball of fire. Remember her beautiful smile and kindness. My sincere condolences reach out to the Dorr and Smillie families. Shine on brightly. Namaste.
