Deepest Sympathies
Deeply saddened to hear of Anita’s passing. Keeping Frank, your family and friends in my thoughts and prayers.
Prayers for Childhood Friend
First and foremost, sending much love and light to Gloria, Rose and Gina and all of Anita’s family that I never met as the years passed on. I am so very sorry for your loss! It breaks my heart. I grew up across the street from the Newports and have very fond memories hanging out with Anita and her sisters, riding bikes together, watching fireworks on the 4th of July in their backyard, BBQs and watching their father set up the Peanuts Decorations on their front lawn every Christmas. I wish I had not lost touch. God bless all of you and your extended families as well. My heart is with you.

Many Prayers
My heart is broken as I think of Anita. Being neighbors, I knew I could always count on a friendly conversation at the fence, petting dogs and talking about puppies! I am going to miss seeing Anita zoom around the yard on her mower, her beautiful smile and our talks at the fence. May God bless you Frank, as you navigate the next days, weeks and months. We are praying for you and we are ready at a moments notice to help with anything.
Much love,
John and Teri Stark
Our love and prayers are with you All
Saddened by the passing of one of my favorite employers, Anita Allen
Our deepest condolences to the Allen family
Anita’s contagious smile, warm and friendly soul and nurturing heart stood out among the crowds. Anita made such a huge impact on both my personal and professional life. Her and Frank were the absolute best owners and people you could ask to work with! The dedication, personal growth opportunities and guidance these two provided to every person who crossed their path, was phenomenal! They truly gave you the tools for success! You weren’t an employee, you were family and Anita and Frank knew how to treat people and show their application of your dedication. SpanPro was a huge stepping stone that gave me the opportunity to expand my horizon and spread my wings!
Anita will truly be missed by so many ❤️

Too Soon
Frank, I am heartbroken to hear this news. I am so sorry for your too-soon loss. I have thought of getting in touch with you and Anita over the years to tell you about the positive impact you both had on me (and many others). You and Anita ran your business as a family and treated everyone there like family too. It took a decade in the Air Force to earn the trust and independence you gave me from day one. The example you and Anita set has served me well and I thank you. I would have liked to tell Anita and wish I hadn’t waited. If you’re ever in Las Vegas, please let me know! My email is my last name at earthlink dot net. Take care and God bless.

I want to express my gratitude for Anita and the impact on my life and my family.
Frank, I am so sorry to hear about Anita’s passing. I am also sorry that I never fully expressed my deep gratitude for both of you and the incredible opportunity you gave me when you hired me at SpanPro. You taught me so much and blessed me with so much in the years I worked for you. The impact you both had on my life, and the life of my wife Devon, gave us the means to start our family together. I am forever grateful to you both. Frank, you, and all of Anita’s loved ones are in my prayers.
Thank you, and God Bless.

A Beautiful Soul
Her big smile and kind heart will be missed
We are so sorry
Frank, Mike and I are shocked and very heartbroken. We are so sorry for you and all the family. Anita was a wonderful person and will be greatly missed.
A Special Smile
What I will always remember about Anita was her smile; warm, friendly and from the heart. And, she was always smiling. That’s a great legacy to leave behind. I didn’t know her well, but we shared little ones we loved. She never missed a birthday party or special family event and she was always smiling. I know she was loved fiercely and will be forever missed. I’m so sorry for the entire family for your loss. Many prayers, Gina DiGirolamo-Strategier
Such a wonderful person
Frank, Gloria, Rose, Gina and families,
Our hearts go out to you all in the loss of Anita. She was always such of loving, caring, kind and generous individual. Always so giving and sweet. Such a special person we feel fortunate to have known. We send our love, thoughts and prayers to you all.
Love, Keith, Gina, Andrew & Brian Merkle
