I just heard of Frank's passing. I met Frank was I was a young boy attending, then working, at Leo Boys Club where he was a counselor. I will always remember that smile, voice and infectious enthusiasm. One of my last encounters with Frank was when I was a Senior at Leo and we crossed the field after the game to shake hands. That was almost 52 years ago and still remember it like it was yesterday:) To the Minik Family, please accept my condolences and I hope you can find comfort in the fact...

My condolences to the entire Minik Family. I had the opportunity to have Frank as a coach, at St Laurence. He had a commanding presence and an infectious smile! The world is indeed a better place having had Frank, although for far too short a time.

I knew Frank Minik from St Laurence HS. I graduated in the first class in 1965. I just remember him as a great person, who treated everyone with respect. RIP

I taught with Frank at St. Laurence in the early 70´s. We used to play Basketball before school either one on one or 3 on 3 against teachers who graduated from the other school in Indiana( St. Joe) . The competition was excessive. Frank was so energetic. He was a Great guy. My condolences. God Bess him Tom Mangan

Frank Minik was a special person to many people. Like so many other youths in Vandergrift, Pa. he was a role model, mentor, and friend. Quite simply he was our hero. May Mr. Minik rest in peace, and peace be with his family. The man was special.
