Frank Repko passed away on April 19, 2025. He was 82 years old. He began his career with the United States Postal Service and continued his career with Western Electric and AT&T Technologies. After 37 years, he retired in 2002 from Lucent Technologies.
Predeceased by his parents Frank and Lottie (Potocki) Repko and his sister-in-law Diane Sheets, he is survived by his best friend and wife of 58 years Lillian (Sheets) Repko and his adored daughter Megan Repko who he cherished in all her accomplishments and especially sharing his love of the Eagles with her.
Frank shared a very special bond with his brother Stan Repko that started in childhood and continued into their adult life. Frank was extremely close to his sister-in-law Marie Repko, treasured nephew Elliot Repko, his wife Nikki and their son Jude. One of the greatest honors of Frank's life was being Jude's godfather.
