Farewell to my Dad - Frank Natoli

Sadly my Dad, Frank, passed away on Sunday 21st February from pancreatic cancer. He had so many health struggles and sadly this was the last straw for him. He was in so much pain and so tired, he fought hard but just couldn't keep fighting any more.

We are so grateful for the outpouring of love and support - we have already received cards that mean so much to us and I know I will be treasuring every one of them that we receive. Thank you.

When dad had his leg amputated last year the cards he received really overwhelmed him, he felt like he wasn't alone, that other people around the world saw him, knew him and cared about it. I truly believe that this helped him be strong and helped his recovery too. Thank you so much to all of you who sent cards to him. I can't express how much I appreciate that gift.




Over the last year we have been having a family zoom call every Sunday and he LOVED it. I am so glad that I got to have that quality time with him despite the challenges of not being able to travel right now.

Thank you all so much - if you had already planned to send a card to Dad - still send it! My sisters Sara and Angelina will love to recieve them. xx
