I suddenly felt the need to bring this back up again

[concrete Building]

Ain't that the truth!

[Russ]

thanks for the sticky! now he will never be forgotten

[Fades Away]

Yes i'm glad you mods felt it appropriate to make this a sticky, hopefully people will come here that knew him well and even new members will see that this is a tight knit group and we all care about one another. Thanks again mods!

[Dawgkikker]

I concur thanks for making this a sticky. I believe Im a better drummer thanks to folks like Frank and all the wonderful people I have met on this site.

[drummer]

It was very sad to have lost one of our own. Making it a sticky was an easy one. Thanks for suggesting it.

[Larrysperf]

I think of Frank every day, and am so grateful that he was a friend as he made me feel like a drummers drummer. He is and always will be missed, but my life is better for having known him.

[defcon235]

Thanks for making this a sticky, mods. Now Frank's memory is always honored...

[Russ]

i still remember how mad i was the day i heard it, part of me is still in shock even now

[concrete Building]

I don't know if I've said this, but it's a great honor to see a fallen member's profile still up for others to see instead of taking it down.

Some form of "Spirit of Frank "Fiacovaz" Iacovazzi." memorial award. It doesn't need to be any kind of physical or monetary thing (much like the self esteem one gains through helping others) rather a recognition in this sticky.

I think this is a good idea.

I thought his thread topics were always ones that were unique and sometimes taken for granted. His " Whats in your stickbag mate " thread was my favorite.

Its something everyone has and uses but what does everyone else keep in theirs. Very creative thinking.

Frank left us 3 months ago today.

[Fades Away]

I found a link under Frank's profile for his Beautiful drum kit, just wanted to share...

[ohmthis]

I've been gone for a long time and missed alot. I longed to hear frank play his red ludwig drums. I feel he gave the most honest advice with years of knowledge behind it. I'm blown away with this news. RIP Frank!!!

oh man what have I missed...............................I am dumbfounded.

Loved this guy, fantastic attitude, deep understanding of drumming and jazz.
oh man I am sooooo bummed out. Will have to search his recordings again.
Thanx for the insight and memories Frank.
peace out .

[gonefishin]

Good to see you again rat..........I remember him being online 2 days before, Im still shocked.He is definately missed by a lot of people.

Im starting to notice more and more members have something for Frank in their signatures.

Glad that you're back with us, rat! There are few days I don't think of what he brought to this forum, including his knowledge, professionalism, and love of drumming.

Peace, bro'!

Wow, it has been FAR too long since I last visited here at drum chat! Melissa told me about Franks going home last night and I have been returning to this thread all night reading everyones posts. I was stunned to hear this news, but what I have found here has been very warming to the heart. We should all strive to live in such a way as to have had such a positive impact on those who come into contact with us. That is probably one of the finest testaments as to the character of Frank. The man will be missed by more people than he would have ever believed possible. Include me among them.

Me too.......and everytime I see a red sparkly set the first thing to come to mind is Frank.

Especially when I run across one of his posts. They are becoming more and more layered deeper in the DC pages.
