Feb. 11, 1967 - Feb. 21, 2013 Frankie, another birthday and another love letter in place of a hug and a party (which you would certainly be the life of).<br><br>Sure, the pain is less raw, but that doesn’t mean we’ve forgotten you.<br><br>Not for a second.<br><br>You’re still a beating heart at the center of our lives. We remember you on holidays and just because.<br><br>We tell your stories and quote you and smile when we hear your favorite songs.<br><br>You left far too soon, but you were here long enough to mark us in ways we will never, ever forget.<br><br>God smiled on us when he sent you our way, and He smiled again when you went back home.<br><br>And we will never stop smiling because you were here, you were real, you were uniquely you, and you loved us.<br><br>With love from your family on your birthday.<div></div><br>
