Frank I. Carrico, 59, of Philpot passed away Monday, August 17 at Owensboro Health Regional Hospital. Born January 29, 1961 in Daviess County to the late Charles Edwin and Mary Virginia Boarman Carrico, Frank was number 11 of 14 children. He graduated from Owensboro Catholic High School (class of 1979). He immediately began working for The Hon Company for 20 years after which he went into business for himself as a general contractor restoring and remodeling homes taking much pride in his work. Frank loved to hunt, fish, and hold family get-togethers at the family farm including the annual Halloween party where he was always the life of the party with his infectious smile. His pride and joy were his two grandchildren who called him Papaw. He also had the “gift of gab” and loved to tell stories and make people laugh. Frank was a generous, friendly, and hospitable person who welcomed all to events and family gatherings. He loved watching U.K. and attending games with his brothers.
In addition to his parents, Mr. Carrico also was preceded in death by four siblings, Samuel Carrico, Carol Roby, Lucy Goetz, and Pat Carrico.
