Born
February 9, 1927 passed away Sunday afternoon March 21, 2004. Frank
made Alameda his lifelong home. Predeceased by his wife, Ina, he is
survived by his daughter Karen, son Mike, daughter-in-law Lisa and many
other relatives. Frank loved his family, friends, job and life in
Alameda. Keeping in touch with everyone was important to him, as were
the road trips he enjoyed taking to visit loved ones. He worked hard to
provide for his family and loved his jobs at the Oakland Tribune
and Post Enquirer for over 40 years before retiring. Similarly, he was a
wealth of information on Alameda history and was very interested and
active in civic affairs, such as fighting Urban Renewal, campaigning for
his favorite candidates, reviving Historic Alameda High School,
supporting Measure 4 and working at the Mayor's 4th of July Parade.
Frank maintained faithful membership in the Catholic Charity, Ligure
Club, Tribune Go-Getters and the Historic Alameda High School
Foundation.
