Frank Malandruccolo Obituary
New City - Frank Malandruccolo of New City, NY passed away Saturday, August 7, 2021 at the age of 84. He was at home, where he belonged, surrounded by his loving family. Our hearts are broken, but still full of the tremendous love he gave us all.
Frank was born in Bronx, NY on March 18, 1937 to Joseph and Assunta (Muscillo) Malandruccolo. Frank moved to New City in 1970 and was a staple in the community as the owner of Little Tor Deli & Caterers. He was also an active member of St. Augustine's Church in New City. After his catering career, Frank had no intention of slowing down. His next career was as a sales rep for Nassau Lens in Northvale, NJ, where he used his second-greatest life skill: conversation. A true "people person" to his core, he made many new friends at work and "phone friends" across the country. To know Frank was to love him!
Frank was predeceased by his beloved wife of 57 years Roseann (Giaccone) and his sisters: Anita Soprano, Norma Mascia and Marie Malandruccolo. He is survived by his brother Mike Malandruccolo and Beth Barsamian, his brother Joe Malandruccolo and his wife Barbara, and his sister Connie Lugo.
Frank is also survived by five people who are blessed to be able to call him Daddy/Pop/Grandpa: his loving daughter Ann Marie Linehan, his forever grateful son-in-law John Linehan, and the center of his entire world: his three grandchildren Nicholas John, Miranda Rose,and Anthony Francis Linehan.
Frank also leaves behind many nieces, nephews and friends, all of whom are lucky to have had him in their lives.
Frank's family will receive visitors at Michael J. Higgins Funeral Home in New City on Wednesday, August 11, 4-8pm. A mass of Christian burial will be held on Thursday, August 12 at 10am, St. Augustine's Church, New City. Interment will follow at St. Anthony's Cemetery in Nanuet.

Dear loved ones of Frank, I just heard the news yesterday and was so surprised.
I am one of the many work "phone friends" of Frank´s.
A Friday never went by that Frank didn´t call just to say Hi if there was no other work reason.
We exchanged grandchild happenings and kept up on the weather.
He told me I was one of his last calls he made before he retired. He was such a kind and caring individual and am sure he will be greatly missed by all.
My memories will always be calls from Frank on Friday to complete the week.
Prayers to all that the happy memories outweigh your loss.

My deepest condolences to the family, Frank was a.gift to us. He was always ready with a smile and quick to help. He would share stories of his beautiful family that he loved unconditionally. It was a pleasure to have known Frank and I am saddened that he is no longer with us. Heaven has gained a special angel that will continue to shine and watch over us. Thank you to the loving family for sharing Frank with me at Nassau for 13 years, my continued prayers and condolences. With love, Cynthia Richardson
