Franco was a loving husband, father, brother, grandfather, uncle and friend to all. Franco was a hard working man who owned his own Barbershop in Miami Shores, Florida for 45 years where he made a true impact and impression on the city and all those he came across. Franco was an active man who loved to bowl, play soccer and travel to his home country. He spent his free time following his favorite sports teams: Dolphins, Heat and Marlins and awaiting the World Cup every four years to watch the Italian Team. Franco loved to spend time with his family especially his grandchildren. Franco was always there to lend a helping hand to family and friends with household projects even if it meant breaking something with the excuse to fix it. Franco was a quiet man of very few words but made a large impact on the lives of all. His memory will forever live.
