Megan,
My most sincere condolences on the loss of Frank. Not only was he a great coworker for the last 13 years I’ve known him, but more importantly he was a faith-filled man who had one of the biggest hearts I have ever seen. He was such a great family man and would brag about you and the girls any chance he would get. We are so sorry for your loss. All of our thoughts and prayers to you and the girls right now. God bless you!

It is very hard to comprehend Frankie’s passing. I never had a conversation with him at work that didn’t include us laughing about something. He was always positive and never had an unkind word to say about anyone. I will miss you, Frank.

My condolences to you and your beautiful daughters. I was fortunate to have known Frank thru the Garland Company. We had many fun times together and I will miss him very much. He was truly one of the nicest people I have ever met and was always grateful for you and his family.
So sorry for your loss.
Regina Luciano
My heartfelt prayers are being said for your family. Feel Frankie’s love in your heart always for he took your love for him to the heavens. May you also know God has His loving arms around all of you.
Becki Armington
I was so terribly saddened when my son, Neil Kutscher told me of Frank’s passing. I used to have the Lake Catholic football team at my house after the games. I remember Frank so well because he was so thoughtful and kind. He didn’t let peer pressure lead him. He was true to himself. There is nothing anyone can say that will fill that awful emptiness in your hearts. As time passes it will heal and hopefully your memories of him will fill that emptiness. Some days will be better than others. My warmest heartfelt prayers are with all of you during this difficult time. I’m honored that I had a chance to know Frank, even if only briefly.
Dan Wall
It is difficult to picture Frank without a smile on his face. Reading these tributes are a testament to his willingness to help anyone, anywhere.
We are deeply saddened by his loss and hope that Megan and his girls find peace.
Rest In Peace, buddy.
Tom Carney

There are very few people that have impacted me over the past 9 years like Frank has. Frank was one of the kindest and most selfless people I have worked with. He was always there for me on tough meetings and my family have a lot to be thankful for from Frank. We both had a passion for boating and I will miss all of our nearly weekly conversations. It’s crazy but he would be the few people that I can still hear the sound of his voice/laugh. Megan and the girl’s we send our love and prayers and I am sorry he was taken away so soon. Frank I will miss you.
Oscar Chacon-Hidalgo
Words aren’t enough to describe the great mentor and influence he had with the Garland Family!
You’ll all continue to be in our prayers.

Megan,
Our deepest condolences to you and your family. Frank was incredibly helpful and generous with his time. When reaching out to Frank with a problem, he had a way of calming the situation and making you laugh which will be truly missed.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family
Mark Fisher
I didn’t get to see you often but when we did talk, you always brought a smile and kindness. One of the good guys for sure, I’ll miss you Frank.
Rest in peace my friend, condolences to your family and friends.
Sarah Blasko
Megan and family, I am so deeply saddened to hear about Frank. He was a good guy and from the various interactions I saw, a great father and husband. I still think back to the early days of trips to Ocean City (and laugh every time I think about Sara telling the story of Frank and Megan coming out of the fog at the RV campground the second year I vacationed with you all in Ocean City) or hanging out around the bonfire at the Macho household (I have some pretty funny pictures from one of the times). I remember Frank holding down the fort with the kids at Sara and Matt’s wedding so Megan could take up Matron of Honor duties at the head table, and most recently I remember the last time I was over your place post going out to dinner for Sara’s birthday, Frank proudly showing off his latest handiwork in creating a gorgeous tabletop for your Marblehead place and sitting on the couch, surrounded by his family. Frank was one of most relaxed, down to earth guys I’ve ever met and will be missed. Though I can’t be there, please know I am thinking of you all everyday during this absolutely tragic time. My heart goes out to you and your family.
Peggy Youdath
We are so sorry for Frank’s loss.
We are sending our love and prayers to your family. May God Bless your family.
Rhiannon Hanania
I went to Lake Catholic with Frank and he was someone who always had a heart of gold. Even if only in pictures I could still see the young man I always will remember having a heart for those who may have felt unseen. He made everyone feel valuable and special. Frank saw everyone with the eyes of Jesus. He really did have a smile that could put anyone at ease and I know this man will be extremely missed. What a good and gentle soul. God bless his family and loved ones always.
Carolyn Albert

Michael and Carol Srdjak
Dear Frank and Lois,
We just found out about your son’s passing from Charlotte and Alan Poje.
The beauty of our Faith is that we know that Frank is in Heaven with our Abba and that we will all be together again for eternity, but until then, we will pray for the Holy Spirit to heal the hurt from such a terrible loss for you and your extended family.
In His Love,
Michael and Carol Srdjak

Frank was one of the kindest and hardest working friends anyone could have. I’ll miss you buddy. You and your family will always be in my thoughts and prayers. You all are the best.
The McNamaras
Frank and Megan were both friends we would always be so thrilled to run into whenever we were at kids´ things. One of my favorite moments to encapsulate what kind of person he was is pretty simple. He had come over to watch a bowl game with Mike and some guys- guys he don´t know except for Mike. He had a great time interacting with everyone. And he came up into the kitchen at one point while I was reading a Christmas book to my (too old to be read to) kids. And he visibly melted a bit. That´s how I´ll remember Frank. He was the guy you wanted to have a beer with, a guy anyone could talk to, but totally lived and breathed to be a dad. It shined through in whatever he did. May the peace of God slowly carry you all through this aching loss. We are here for whatever you need.
Mary collins
So sorry for your loss! I didn’t know Frank but I use to work with Megan. I could see the love he had for his family through her Facebook posts!! Prayers, love and hugs! May God hold you all in his arms at this sad time and always! He is embraced in the loving arms of our God!!
Shawn Borrello
Frank was the absolute most consummate Colleague and Professional I have ever had the honor and privilege of working with. Frank was the “total package”! Reserved, calm, collected, well calculated, and the most articulate in every moment regardless of the situation. I called him Frankie “Parm” cuz we would always talk about our Italian Heritage first and foremost before business, and we both agreed that anything “Parm” was food of the gods! I can still hear his chuckle….just the best!
Megan, I unfortunately never had the privilege of meeting you and the girls, but please know, the Borrello Household would not be where we are today, if it weren’t for Frank…
Heaven got a complete Angel in Frank Percaciante..
All our deepest thoughts and most intentional prayers to you and your families.
God’s Richest Blessings and Protection,
Shawn, Michelle, Cassandra, and Kyle Borrello
Robert Wolf
Frank, I never had the pleasure of meeting your son Frank, but can see he is a caring and loving husband and father. Just want to say you have my sincere condolences. With deepest sympathy, your partner at work Bob.
TERRI CASEY
Frank was such a positive spirit….always a great attitude and a smile. He was one of those people who always made you feel welcome….never a stranger.
We will miss him around the Garland Company but always remember his contributions. Gone too soon….
Josh Sharp
So very sad to hear this news! Had the pleasure of working with Frank for nearly a decade and we shared many great times and laughs. He was a genuine and kind man and he will be missed!
You’ll be in our prayers!
Mary and Marco Mazzone
Sending heartfelt condolences to his family and friends. May the wonderful memories of Frank give you some comfort in the days ahead.
Kevin Horne
Frank has touched so many people in his short 41 years here on earth that I feel confident that his spirit and his legacy will live on and touch many generations to come.
I hope and pray that we can all show others the same kind, humble loving spirit that Frank always gave each of us.
Until we meet again my friend.
The Percaciante family and loved ones are in my thoughts and prayers.
Frieda Rodriguez-Salim
I have never met a kinder, smarter, wiser man. Frank was a friend and mentor to me. I will always remember the kindness you shown me at Garland and how much you helped me and trained me. This all seems so unfair and I must know that God has a plan. You are so missed! The world will not be the same without you. Hugs and prayers to the family!
Lu Family
Dear Megan & Family,
Words can’t express how saddened we are by Frank’s passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. We pray the Lord wraps you in His arms of comfort.

Jeffrey Ruden
I’m sadden to hear the loss of Frank! My deepest condolences to you and your family! He was the most genuine, kindest, lovable guy I’ve got know over the years. We shared many laughs and of course challenging him about numbers! He always spoke about his family and what it meant to him! Much love Frank!!!
Tom McIntosh
Megan,
I am so sad for you and the girls. Frank was so proud of all of you and I would so enjoy our conversations when they would turn to family and I would listen to him speak of the love and pride he had in you all. My very deepest condolences and sympathies and many prayers of love and understanding.
Frank,
You are such a great friend, partner and truly one of the best persons I know. you had a huge and selfless impact on my life professionally, as you also did for so many others at Garland. Knowing you as a friend and understanding your love for your family, faith, friends as well as your love of life also made me a better person. Truly, you are one of those unique people that make this world a better place for all you touched.
Frank, we share a personal passion, which is cooking and sharing BBQ with family and friends. You BBQ with love for those you love just like you lived life with love for those you love.
RIP my Brother. I will forever miss you and carry you in my heart. I look forward to the day when we meet again and we stand over that grill together, getting a little smoke in the eye and sharing a sip or two of some very rare bourbon.
