    To the Tigano family — Please accept my condolences upon the passing of Frank Sr. Lots of memories dating back to the North Braddock EUB Church and numerous interactions between our families. I remember buying records at the F&C store on Braddock avenue, and I still have many of them. May Frank rest in peace, and may God bring you comfort, peace and hope.
    Sincerely,
    Fred Glasser

    It is with great sadness that our family has learned of Uncle Frank’s passing. Even though we only saw each other at our annual family reunions, Uncle Frank always made sure we had a wonderful and fun time during our stay in Pittsburgh. Our family sends much love and deepest condolences to my cousins Rosalie, David, Frank, Jerry and the Tigano family.
