Frank Tapanza

Frank Tapanza was a mobster and the underboss of the Montesino crime family. He grew up with Nicolas Montesino, and was his best friend. Frank and Nicolas both created the Montesino crime family due to bad work wages and oppression from the Russian mob.
Not much is known about Tapanza, and most of his personal information was lost or destroyed. Few pictures of him exist, and only a few people know what he really looks like.
== Montesino Family Information ==
Frank managed most of the family, including finances. He was the first person to go to if someone had a problem within the family. He wasn't as tactically skilled as Nicolas, but was good with a gun. He was quick to shoot anyone opposing Nicolas, which made many operations go south.
== Death ==
On Friday, November 14, 2008, Frank was killed in Middle Park, Liberty City, by members of the Rocco crime family, during a combat situation. He was shot in a car, and died in the street while talking to Nicolas. Oxygen was cut off to Frank's brain, so he was very unstable while speaking to Nicolas, but had enough brainpower left to speak to Nicolas intelligently one last time. 
Nicolas avenged Frank by personally executing Carmine Rocco.
