Frank will be lovingly remembered by his wife of over 67 years, Juanita (Jan) Newby and their children, Debbie (Ed) Summers, Frank (Michele) DelGreco, Kathleen (Matt) Vickory and Christine DelGreco, grandchildren, Alyssa Cerez and Alex (Jennie) Summers, great-grandson, Wyatt Summers, step-grandchildren, Jennifer (Scott) Wheeler, Hannah and Sam Vickory, Erika (Drew) Weiler, Jared Badour, and step-great grandchildren, Fynn Wheeler, Landon Wheeler and Ryleigh Weiler. He was honored to serve in the Korean War, receiving three bronze stars. He attained the rank of Corporal in the US Army. He proudly flew the US flag each day. He retired after 34 years from General Motors Fisher Body as a Tool and Die Maker. He was a graduate of the skilled trades program at General Motors Institute (GMI). He was a mentor to many students during their apprenticeship. He was well respected for his work ethic and knowledge. He was an active member of St. Francis of Assisi Church, Grove City, Florida and Holy Redeemer Church, Burton, MI. He participated in multiple fund-raising activities at both churches. He served as an usher and previously a member of the Knights of Columbus. He was an accomplished wood worker and wood carver. Family members and friends cherish the furniture and carvings he crafted by hand. He was a first generation Italian American and very proud of his heritage. Over the years, he and family members traveled to the San Rocco Festival in Aliquippa, PA to celebrate his Italian heritage. Frank treasured the time spent with family and friends and cherished the memories. We were blessed to have Frank (Dad) for almost 91 years. On Tuesday, Fr.
