I would like to offer my deepest condolences to the entire Caputo family. I knew Frank as a customer at my restaurant. I looked forward to seeing him and the fun banter that always accompanied his visit. His smile always radiant. He was a great man and I will miss his dearly, but I am happy to know that he is at peace. His loved ones have gained an angel to watch over them. He loved his family and I hope that he has left enough memories to last a lifetime.
