Default Gambler Fundraiser in memory of Frank Florio

Bobby Bogan is hosting a fundraiser in memory of Frank Florio. All procedes will be going to Frank's wife.

It will be a late afternoon on Saturday April 27th. A blackfish trip leaving Inlet Drive at 3:30PM and returning at 8:30.

Frank started fishing in the late 60's on his Father's boat the Miss Michele, then the Family bought the Barvic. In the late 70's his family sold the Barvic and bought the Barbara Sue a dragger that he and his brothers ran until the late 90's. Frank worked for a lot of the charter and party boats during his career. He finished up the past 10 years or so with John Cole on the Golden Touch.

If you have any questions please send them to
Dan Florio at: theflorios@yahoo.com

This will be a great evening in memory of a great guy. His wife has no idea this is being done for her. I hope to see you there.

I think we need to bring a skillet, eggs, potatoes and sausage and have an afternoon breakfast!

How can we make a donation if we are not able to come? Please let us know as Frank was an amazing mate and friend. We had plenty of good times with him and he definitely was a great fisherman who taught me a lot about fishing.

Howie,
Unfortunately I will be away and won't be able to make the trip. However I spoke to Capt Bob and told him I will donate a rod and reel for a raffle to be held on the trip. He will pick it up from me. Frankie was one of the good guys!
