NWA NJ & NY Mourn Frank Gattuso

It was with great sadness that we learned of the death of Frank “Frankie G.” Gattuso. Frank had worked countless NWA shows in New Jersey going back to the days of Dennis Corraluzzo. Frank was known for his good sense of humor, loyalty and intelligence. He had been ailing for many years but always moved forward with great courage and never felt sorry for himself. We pray that Almighty God grants to Frank eternal peace. He will forever be a part of the NWA family.
