About my Frankie.

We weren't rich, but I always made sure my Frankie and his brothers had food in their bellies. Frankie was such a happy little boy. Always tinkering. How many times I was cleaning up after him. Always taking things apart. Like I wasn't busy enough cleaning other people's houses every day.

By the time Frankie was 12, he was getting so good at getting our old things to work again. Anytime our family or neighbors needed something fixed, I always had Frankie fix it. Frankie could fix anything.

Except his grades. When Frankie dropped out of high school, I didn't want him left for dead, so I got him a job with my brother Micky, fixing air conditioners in Tucson.

I'm so proud of my Frankie. He even got me an air conditioner. It wasn't new, but it works so good. We never had air conditioning when Frankie was growing up. He's such a good boy.

Now he tells me he's going to go out on his own and start an air conditioning repair business. If you need your air conditioning fixed, you call my Frankie. He's an honest, hard-working boy. He always took such good care of me and our loved ones.

Ethel, Frankie's customer care lead, at her desk

Hi, I'm Frankie.

I wish we were rich! We grew up a special kind of poor. Ma cleaned houses. My dad never came back from Iraq. Ma has always been such a hard worker. She always took such good care of me. I really did have a happy childhood.

So when she voluntold me to help out our family and neighbors, it was the least I could do. As a kid, I loved taking things apart and putting them back together. I guess I'm pretty darn good at it now.

I suppose I have my Uncle Mick to thank for that. He taught me everything about air conditioners, furnaces, airflow, and ducts. He really was the dad I never had.

After I dropped out of high school, I had three choices: the military, prison, or the trades. I decided the trades had the least chance of ending up in a body bag. Ma agreed… enthusiastically, we'll say.

So when Uncle Mick went to throw away a 21-year-old air conditioner we practiced on at the shop, I asked if I could take it off his hands. Mom and I had no air conditioning in our home growing up.

That old air conditioner is still humming along today for Ma, 32 years in.

It was my Uncle Mick who encouraged me to go out on my own. He says, "I have a knack for taking good care of people."

Now I'm going to work real hard to fix your air conditioner so I can finally buy Ma a new one. It's the least I can do.

If you need to refresh, repair, restore, or replace your air conditioner or heater, I'd be honored to fix it for you.
