Even to-date, Frank would enjoy going to watch Scrappers games, the Pittsburgh Pirates and (his favorite) his great grandchildren's baseball teams.
In addition to his baseball accomplishments, Frank was a member of the International Brotherhood of Magicians since 1972 and a member of the Youngstown Magic Club. He also enjoyed golf and made a hole-in-one during his lifetime at Cranberry Golf Course in Champion. Frank enjoyed doing yard work, attending the local ITAMs and rooting for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
