R.I.P.

When I was stationed at Ft. Knox KY in 1963, Frankie was serving there in the Special Services ... he had a weekend gig across the river in Indiana and we caught his show there ...
R I P

R.I.P He had a good run. Good ole piano R&R. I still do Seacruise occasionally. Amazing to read how he bounced around and still had to scramble for gigs his whole life. Maybe had an agent do the footwork for him. His girlfriend seems to do better to me with her long time gig in one place. Good timing too. Retired right before Katrina wiped everything out.
