Dear family, friends, and community,

It is with a heavy heart that I share the news of the passing of Francesco and Rachael’s father, Frank Savastano, who left us the morning of June 4th. Mr. Frank, as so many of us affectionately knew him-was truly one of a kind. Above all else, he was a devoted family man, a deeply loved brother and son, a loving fiancé to Mary, and a proud, active member of the OLGC community. He treated everyone he met with immense kindness and treated all of Frankie and Rachael's friends like his own family. Whether he was helping many of us land our very first jobs, bringing a laugh to every room he walked into, or lifting everyone up with his unwavering positivity, Big Frank left an unforgettable mark on all of our lives.

During an incredibly difficult time like this, the last thing a grieving family should have to worry about is financial stress. As a close friend of Frankie and Rachael, I am setting up this GoFundMe to help ease the heavy burden that comes with an unexpected loss. All funds raised from this campaign will go directly to Frankie and Rachael to assist them with funeral and memorial expenses, end-of-life and miscellaneous costs, and to provide direct support for daily living expenses as they take time away from work to grieve, heal, and navigate this new reality.

If you are unable to donate at this time, please consider sharing this link with your network, especially within the OLGC community. Your thoughts, prayers, and words of comfort mean the world to Frankie and Rachael right now. Thank you for your generosity, kindness, and for standing by this wonderful family as we honor a man who gave so much love and joy to all of us.

RIP Mr Frank - We Love You.
