Frank also served as a Board Member of the Sacramento Builders Exchange, the Bank of Sacramento, TESCO Controls, Inc. and WECA.  He was a member of the round table advisory group of close friends and businessmen, known as The RAT Group.  Frank loved boating with Carrie, entertaining friends and family, enjoying great food, fine wine, traveling (especially to visit his family in Italy) and Sunday Family Dinners.  Frank is survived by his wife, Carrie, and his three children: Dina Kimble (Darrin) (mother: Susan Vellutini), Carla Albright (Evan) and Leo Vellutini III (Lindsay), and his six grandchildren: Bennett Kimble, Lia Kimble, Savannah Albright, L.
