Dear SVFD Family,

We would like to thank the officers and members of the Somers Volunteer Fire Department for their kindness, prayers, and tributes to Frank.

Frank wore his uniform with immense pride, and he valued the bonds he built within this department more than words can say. Your support has meant the world to Maureen and entire Ritacco family as we navigate this sudden loss.

Thank you for being there for him in life, and for us now.

Sincerely, The Ritacco Family
