Dear Annemarie and Family: My sincerest condolences on the death of Frank. I have very fond memories of him when we visited Uncle Benny and Aunt Hilda so many years ago. and when the family came to Ottawa. May he rest in peace and may God grant you strength and peace during this difficult time.
Frank was a great man who was a joy to carpool with for many Ginna outages.. Inevitably many conversations turned to his family which he was most proud of..
Rest in Peace my friend. You’ll be missed.
I am saddened to hear of the passing of this great man. Frank was a joy to work with at Ginna Station. He always brought a smile to my face. Rest in peace, my friend.
Dear Annemarie, Keith, Rosie and all the family:
Sincerest sympathy on your loss of Frank. I remember with fondness, the many trips we made as kids to visit Uncle Benny, Aunt Hilda and family in Rochester and all the special times we had when they came to see us in Ottawa. May you find comfort in wonderful memories and in the knowledge that he is at his eternal rest. May his soul through the mercy of God rest in peace. With love and regards.
Deepest sympathy at sad time
God Bless the entire Pavia family as you celebrate Frank’s life.
He watched his sons Keith, and Frank Jr. and my son Michael play baseball together and then football at Fairport H.S. Frank was always there to cheer his sons on and was involved with coaching for several years at the little league fields in Fairport. I remember to this day his passion for sports. Thank you for the memories, Frank. Rest in peace and may God bless your family at this time of mourning.
Keith and Dee and family- Our thoughts and prayers are with you all during this time of your loss.. Your father is with our beautiful creator and hope you find peace and comfort in knowing that. Take care Love the Biermann’s
Some of my best years were spent at Ginna from 1979-1984 with Frank and Chuck Mitrano always there for a joke, a smile, and fantastic golf tournaments and dinners. He was a wonderful man and may the memories he created and his sense of humor live on in our hearts. Sincerest condolences to his family who I know he held near and dear.
Melissa, we are so sorry to hear of your loss. Please know that we are keeping you in our thoughts.
My condolences. Frank was a nice man with a great personality.
Frank was a good friend and coworker. It was a pleasure being part of a bowling team with him as it was one of his passions in life. Golf on the other was not, but we had a lot of laughs playing that too. You will be missed my old friend and are now forever in the wind.
Frank, buddy RIP. We had so much fun at the nuke plant!
Very sad to hear the passing of such a great man. My thoughts and prayers are for your family.
Love and prayers for your family. May the Lord bless you all with peace, love, blessings and many happy memories at this very difficult time.
Work with Frank at Ginna shutdowns. Many good memories of Frank. RIP

Rest in peace my friend and May God bless you. As kids and grown ups we had a lot of fun in the past years..
Dear Mrs. Pavia, Stacia and family – Frank was an amazing and remarkable man. He loved his family, his friends and his community. I will miss his wonderful stories and all the laughs he brought me every time I saw him. I am so sad with his passing, but I want you all to know how much he was loved by me and my staff at Penfield Family Medicine. God Bless all of you – my sincerest thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Annemarie and family-so sorry for your loss. Frank was a great man. Loved his spirit as a ball player, football advocate who was a Red Raider and Redskins super fan. Frank has a legacy inside RG&E for his leadership to direct a diverse team of skilled workers from many RG&E departments to inspect and repair Ginna Station steam generators under challenging conditions. He had immense respect from all he worked with throughout the nuclear industry. Martha and my prayers are with you all and may Frank rest in peace. God bless you all.
Frank was a truly great guy. Such a good and decent person. I will always be thankful for his friendship and the great times we great together.
I work under Franks leadership at Ginna station I only have admiration and respect when thinking of him my thoughts and prayers go out to his family at this time.
Dear AnneMarie and family,
Our sincere condolences on Frank’s passing. He exemplified the true meaning of “gentle” in gentleman. It was an honor and joy to have been a part of his life. We can’t help but smile when we think of Frank, for he always took the time to brighten our day. May you find peace and solitude in all the fond memories that he helped create in his lifetime.
Sincerely,
Elaine and Joe Widay
What a great guy. I knew him under many different hats over the years at RG@E and no matter what hat he was wearing he was the same gentle human being. God Bless.
Always a Gentleman, with a smile and greeting each time i came across him. Even during the stressful times during annual shutdowns, he had a sense of humor.
