Condolence: About 8 years ago, when our Coventry High reunion host Brooke became ill, Frank offered to host our committee meetings, held twice a year. He enjoyed having us around so much that he then began to plan other activities for all of us. First came the Annual Perrotti picnic open to all Coventry High School alumni which grew bigger and bigger each year. Then there were bus trips to racetracks, monthly wine tasting, Friday nights at Coventry winery, etc. And so, the fun began. He would introduce us as his “kids”. Our social life will never be the same. We will miss your happy face, Frank. He and Brooke are in heaven planning our final reunion, which I hope is not for a long time. The one thing about Frank that always amazed me was his incredible memory. Just mention a name of a CHS student and he could tell you their siblings, their parents, where they lived etc. That is what made him such a great administrator. Last year at this time we watched the Kentucky Derby, Frank wearing my Derby hat and he put together a small money pool among us. I see this year one of the leading contenders is Vino Rosso (red wine) and I will be playing that one in Frank’s honor.

Condolence: My deepest sympathy & condolences. I met Frank about 10 years ago at the Mansfield grandparents group (kin raising grandkids etc). What a delightful man of integrity. He had a heart for others that was apparent and continued to stay and support this group in his later years....speaking of which I was very surprised on his passing finding out his age. Pretty sharp witted he was.

Condolence: On behalf of the Bowen Family we wish to offer our condolences on the passing of Frank. Frank was a stand up man who gave so much and was a pillar in our community. He was always very friendly to my parents and I, and always asked about everyone every time I saw him. I saw Frank a few months back with Fran and I was so happy to see him and say hello. Always a smile- always a great concern for others. Rest in Peace.

Frank is a person who has left an indelible mark on the lives of so many people, both young and old, over the years. As an educator he was instrumental in shaping the futures of so many students with his down to earth friendly style. Frank’s sense of humor made any gathering a happy place to be and he could liven up any party with his stories. He will be greatly missed by all of us who were privileged to call him our friend. Our thoughts and prayers are with Barbara and all of the family. Frank has left you with many wonderful memories that will bring comfort and smiles in the difficult days ahead.

Condolence From: Mike Rose
Condolence: I was very sad to hear of Mr. Perrotti's passing. As sad as I was I smiled remembering my first real face to face with a man who could be very intimidating. Especially at 13 years old and a 7th grader at Mansfield Middle School. I applied for a "job" in the school and had to meet with my first boss. As we discussed the position Mr. Perrotti took his time to bring me through my very first job interview. After more than 40 years I can still remember him looking me in the eye, shaking my hand and congratulating me by saying you have the job! For a 13 yr old it was impactful. 40 something years later and owning my own company I still foundly remember that day and thank him for that life lesson. May he Rest In Peace knowing he touched so many lives.

Condolence From: Christian D'Ambrosio
Condolence: Frank was a wonderful friend, neighbor, teacher, mentor and family man. He was a trusted friend of my parents Judy and Tony D'Ambrosio for over 50 years. Great neighbor who lived down the street. Always had a good story to tell, life lesson to share, sports memory to give every time I saw him. Even though he is a lifelong Yankee fan, I will miss seeing him and hearing his stories. Lost a good one today.

Condolence From: Cindy Houser
Condolence: I was so sad to hear Frank was called home to heaven. Frank was such a BIG person...welcoming so many to be a part of his life. I knew Frank in various capacities...as a customer, as a friend,(he so kindly included me in that wide circle), as a fellow Lion, where he welcomed me when I joined that club. To Barbara and his entire family may you be blessed with your memories and the peace that our Lord will provide you.

Condolence From: Donald Storrs
Condolence: Mr. Perrotti, and even though over the 60 plus years many of us had with him and may have called him "Frank", was always held with highest of respect and admiration as a professional, an educator, a "Coventry person", and a friend. The work he did for the town of Coventry's education system and the support he provided to everyone he knew, and especially to the students he had the pleasure to work with each day, was just amazing. He was held in the highest admiration by all he contacted. Mr. Perrotti not only "built" the Coventry school system...he also united a community together. My best, and condolences to his family.
