Frank was devoted to his wife and family. He was a revered patriarch, a loving husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather and uncle, setting a high example to all who loved and knew him. "He was the most loving husband and best friend". He was a gentle, honest, funny, hardworking man. He did what was right even when no one was watching. Ocean City, Maryland was his town, the beach his solace, and the people were his friends and neighbors.
