Edith Frank Obituary
Somers - Edith Christina "Edie" Frank, 79, of Somers, NY died Monday, March 4, 2019, at Northern Westchester Hospital.
Edie was born in 1939 in The Bronx, NY to the late Gerard and Edith Pollice. She lived in Parkchester, The Bronx and moved to Eastchester in 1953. She graduated from Elizabeth Seton School in Yonkers, NY in 1957. Following graduation, she attended Katherine Gibbs School in NYC and, upon completion, worked at AMOCO Corp. In 1965, she married Richard G. Frank of Mount Kisco, NY and moved to Bronxville, NY. In 1968, the Franks moved to Somers, NY. Edie began employment as a secretary shortly thereafter in the Somers Central School district until her retirement in 1998.
The highlights of Edie's life were in 1975, when her son, Erik, was born, and in 1979, when her daughter, Krista was born.
Edie was predeceased by her brother, Gerard Pollice (Ellen Kenny), and is survived by Richard, Erik (Margaret) of Brooktondale, NY, Krista (Andreas) of Somers, NY, niece Elizabeth Pollice of Eastchester, NY, and six grandchildren, whom she loved dearly. She was heavily involved in the Deans Pond Association, the Polaris Yacht Club, and helped organize the USS Caloosahatchee reunion for over twenty years. Edie was an active member of St. Joseph's Catholic Church in Somers, NY, and was devoted to her many friends in the Somers community.
Mass will be held at St. Joseph's Catholic Church in Somers, NY on Thursday at 10:00am.
Interment will follow at Ivandell Cemetery in Somers.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made in Edie's name to the Young Survival Coalition for women with cancer at YoungSurvival.org.

To you Richard, Krista, Erik and the family we send our deepest sympathy on the passing of Edie. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
We were friends since the Amoco days and remained friends ever since. We always kept in touch every so often since we now live in Texas. Our children were close in age so we would always catch up on them and our grandchildren. It was always fun chats. I will dearly miss talking to my friend. My heart is full of sadness but I know the Lord will welcome her with open arms.
Fondly,
Eleanor and Bob Burke

I was so saddened to hear about Edie's passing. She was such a lovely, caring and very funny women. Even though we did not see each other on a regular basis, she was so friendly and outgoing! She always spoke about her grandchildren and children, of course. I would hear funny stories about her and Richard. I know she will always end up being part of a conversation since her memory will be so alive. Again, our deepest condolences.
