After his retirement from the Navy, he worked for and retired from Enterprise Electronic Corporation as the Vice President of Marking and Sales.

He also was an avid FSU fan. He was an avid reader and enjoyed spending time researching his family tree and keeping a running record of it. He also loved classical music. More than anything he loved his family and would do anything he could to help them and loved to spend time with them. In addition to his parents, he is preceded in death by his daughter, Lori Ann Monfort; and two sisters, Barbara Shipes and Ann Henderson; and his beloved fur baby, Precious. Frank is survived by his wife, Glenda Sloan; two sons, Greg Sloan and Kevin Sloan; six grandchildren, Ashley, Phillip, Courtney, Christopher, Jeffery, and Eddie; three great-grandchildren; one sister, Dolly Cochran; as well as many other extended family members and friends.
