The passing of time and long distance has done nothing to diminish the significance of my four years at LHS and the enduring importance of the friendships forged during that time. Even though I haven't had a relationship with Frank since graduation in 1969 he was one of my best friends and his passing makes me very sad. Fortunately, there are memories about Frank which I have been sharing with my family and friends (old ones, too) that will last a lifetime. Frank's friendship made a lasting impression on me (and a lasting tattoo on my leg). Frank will remain forever one of my best friends and I will miss him. Here's to the good old days ~ CA

My deepest sympathy goes out to the Cellozzi family.  I was unable to attend services for Frank but my thoughts and prayers are with the family.  I worked with Frank for many years at Lorain Products (Network Services) and then again at Orius (Arion).  He was a wonderful man.  I enjoyed working with him and he befriended me and was a very encouraging father like figure to me.  He will be greatly missed.

I am home in heaven, dear ones, Oh so happy and so bright! Here is perfect joy and beauty in this everlasting light. All the pain and grief is over, every restless tossing past! I am now at peace forever, safely home in heaven at last.

Did you ever wonder, I so calmly trod the valley of shade?, Oh! But Jesus' love illumined every dark and fearful glade. And he came himself to meet me in that way so hard to tread; And with Jesus' arm to lean on, could I have one doubt or dread?

Then you must not grieve so sorely, for I love you dearly still; Try to look beyond earth's shadows, pray to trust the Father's will. There is work still waiting for you, so you must not idly stand;
Do it now, while life remaineth, you shall rest in Jesus' land.

When that work is completed, he will gently call you home; Oh the rapture of that meeting; Oh the joy to see you come!
 

Remember me when flowers bloom
Early in the spring
Remember me on sunny days
In the fun that summer brings

Remember me in the fall
As you walk through the leaves of gold
And in the wintertime - remember me
In the stories that are told

But most of all remember
Each day - right from the start
I will be forever near
For I live within your heart

You are in my heart every day, I miss you so much Dad.
