Frank M. Fregosi

Hampton, NH - Frank M. Fregosi of Hampton, NH, beloved husband of Donna (Boire) Fregosi, passed away peacefully on March 16, 2021 at home surrounded by his loving family after a brief illness. Frank was born on May 19, 1956 in Everett Massachusetts. He was the son of the late Ralph F. Fregosi and Clementina (Cosentino) Fregosi. Frank was raised in Wakefield, Mass and graduated from Wakefield High School, class of 1974. He studied at Wentworth Institute of Technology, graduating with an Associate's degree in Construction Engineering. He worked for New England Telephone Company from 1976-1986. In 1986, Frank decided to venture out on his own, and Teleresource, now known as EDS, LLC was created. For the past 35 years Frank was not only the President and "Boss" but most importantly a friend to all of his many employees.

Frank and Donna married in 2002 and lived in Leominster, Mass and Hampton, New Hampshire.

It was in Hampton that Frank most loved to spend his time, relaxing on the beach, fishing on his boat, and just spending time with his large family. Frank and Donna loved to travel. Their recent trip to Italy was truly a trip of a lifetime. Frank was a much loved husband, father, and brother as well as a loving "Bampy" to his nine grandchildren. Frank will be remembered for his generosity and kindness, his ever-present infectious smile, sense of humor, and his love of life. In addition to his wife Donna, Frank is survived by his daughters Melissa Kay and husband Ian, Elise Calisi and husband Louis, Gina Fregosi, and step-daughters Nicole Cooper and husband Robert, Christina Vautour and husband Brian, Jennifer Sodano and Timothy Comeau, his nine grandchildren Isabella and Gabriel Calisi, Molly Kay, Dominic Martin, Giovanni and Santino Cooper, Jack Vautour, Olivia Comeau and Reece Shaw. Frank is also survived by his brother Ralph Fregosi and wife Charlene, sisters Christine Beagan and husband Hugh, and Stephanie Dolloff and husband Stephen, his mother-in -law Gloria Boire, many nieces, nephews and cousins, and his best friend, his dog, Tootsie. Frank was predeceased by his brother John Fregosi, his sister-in law Diane Robins, Delia Salois (Memere) and good friend Albert Nash.

To Franks Wife, Family & Many Friends,

(Apologies in advance this is long, yet hope it warms your hearts, as always has mine?!!)

Is with heavy heart & so deeply saddened to just learn of Franks passing. We knew each other since grammar school (1st grade) & last saw 1 another at our 20th yr HS Class Reunion,1994. Plus, after graduation, his folks purchased a home on same street our home was on. So we got to know his wonderful Mom + others in family, too.

Wasn't a bit surprised to learn how successful Frank became or esp how very much everyone adored him!
He was ALWAYS such a KIND + CARING person. Have never forgotten him & always thought of him throughout the yrs; including just recently.

Frank held a special place in my heart, since both very young! In 3rd grade I needed Dbl Hip Surgery, a body cast + long recovery. Was out of school + tutored, most of that yr.
After returning back to school, had brought in a letter rec'd from a celebrity for "Show & Tell." Our teacher pinned it uP on Wall ~ But it FELL down,, yep,, straight into trash bucket!

Always SO thoughtful, even at 9yo, he was very DETERMINED to FIND my (at the time) spcl momentum; I'd presumed must be gone, forever?! But Frank FOUND it, quite miraculously Undamaged, to boot.
He'd gone down to the school basement, shuffled through everything (trash) ~ and AT the 11th Hr; just BEFORE about 2b thrown into Incinerator, FINDS it. What were THE chances??!!
Haven't + shall NEVER forget that! He was always a good friend, to all. Still tell story -
To this day,, about my Hero, "Frank Fregosi"!!
Also have pictures of him f. our reunion + just recently looked at them.

My deepest condolences go out to his wonderful family + friends. He'll always be special to SO many and sorely missed. Will be keeping you ALL in my thoughts and prayers. Can't express enough how sad I feel.
Sincerely,
Rose Terravecchia

Your love for your family and your grandchildren was so obvious. My heart is pained Donna for you and your family, as it was obvious your life with Frank was exciting. I am so sorry for your loss. I pray that God will comfort you with the promises he makes to all of us that he will help us heal as we lean on all who love us unconditionally. May God be with you at this difficult time. You are a beautiful person and the love you have for others will be instrumental in your healing and the healing of your entire family. God bless you.

Donna and family,

I am so sorry to hear of Frank’s passing. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. I first had the honor of knowing Frank through my brother Rob and later I was blessed to be part of the EDS family for a brief time. One didn’t even have to meet Frank to know how much of an amazing person he was- just listening to people talk of him was a testament to Frank’s kindness, generosity and greatness! He will be remembered with such fondness and love. I am so sorry for your tremendous loss!

Deepest Sympathies,
Tammy
