Frank was a role model to both students and staff at Babylon High School throughout the entire course of his 42-year career. He was without question the patriarch of the social studies department; he played an integral role in molding me into the educator that I am today. As I contemplate my own retirement after a 34 year career, I am eternally grateful for the opportunity to have worked with him for almost two decades. He left his indelible mark on Babylon High School, and all who were blessed to have known him.
What a terrible loss to humanity and to education. Frank was the perfect department chairman showing concern for each of his instructors, staff and administrators. He always had a kind word for everyone and mentored the younger staff with impeccable dedication and devotion. Additionally he was a men who knew the might of a strong union.
A wonderful husband, father, chairman and friend he will be sorely missed by everyone who knew him.
Much love to you, Judy,
Sheila
My heart aches for your loss, and I want you to know how much you all mean to me.
I have never met anyone who has been as sincere and genuine in their care and concern about others than my Uncle Frank. With all the students, teachers, and family he had to keep up with he always seemed to to take time to know about things going on in my life, and as with everyone else, he had a sincere interest in wanting the best for you. It is truly amazing with the amount of people he had in his life that he could remember everyone’s details and find the time to follow up on us all. I will always remember and respect him for this. Additionally, to this day when I think of Christmas I always think of his Christmas parties and the amazing decorations he would have at his home. It warms me just thinking of it now.
