Frank V. Pecoraro, 61, of Middletown, Rhode Island passed Monday, September 8, 2025 in Newport, RI.

Born in Sea Isle City, New Jersey on May 23, of 1964, he developed a love for fishing at a young age, joining his uncles and cousins in their family-run fishing company along the New Jersey coast. Fishing wasn't just a hobby-it was a way of life that stayed with him throughout the years, bringing him peace, joy, and a lasting bond with nature and family.

In his later years, he found great pride and purpose working in construction. Known for his work ethic and pride, Frank left a lasting impact on both the work he contributed to and the people he worked alongside.

Frank is survived by his sister, Carolyn Pecoraro, his two nieces, Adrienne Williamson and Savannah Weeden, his nephew, Jayce Adu and immediate family members, Holly Booth and Joseph Bates.

He is preceded by his mother, Christine Schell, father, Vince Pecoraro, grandmother, Lillian Cheeseman, grandmother, Wilma Harris and other immediate family members.

Frank was a beloved member of his family and community.
