Nancy Sinatra Doesn’t Think She’ll ‘Ever Fully Get Over’ Losing Dad Frank 28 Years After His Death
Nancy Sinatra is remembering her legendary father, Frank Sinatra, with an emotional tribute nearly three decades after his death.
The “These Boots Are Made for Walkin'” singer, 85, took to Instagram on Wednesday, May 14, to reflect on the 28th anniversary of the music icon‘s passing and the lasting impact he had on both his family and generations of fans.
“Twenty-eight years ago, the world lost Frank Sinatra, and I lost my dad,” Nancy wrote. “I don’t think I’ll ever fully get over the loss of him.”
The daughter of Ol’ Blue Eyes, who died in 1998 at age 82, described the Grammy winner as “one of the most extraordinary men” she ever knew.
Nancy also praised the “My Way” singer’s enduring musical legacy, saying he would be thrilled to know his music remains wildly popular today.
On Spotify alone, the late singer has amassed 18 million monthly listeners.
“Dad was always concerned that his work would be forgotten,” she shared. “He would be absolutely thrilled to know that his legacy lives on across generations.”
The singer added that Frank’s music continues to bring listeners “comfort, joy, romance, and strength.”
She concluded the touching message with a heartfelt note to her late father, writing: “Frank Sinatra is eternal. And I still miss my Daddy. I love you, Poppa.”
