After his military service, Frank continued his education at Quinsigamond Community College, where he earned an associate degree in electronic technology. He built a successful career in the technology field, working for more than 24 years as a Technical Engineer at Data General before continuing his career with Hewlett-Packard.

Frank was a devoted member of the Sturbridge Worship Center where he worshipped. Frank had a lifelong passion for computers. What began as a career also remained one of his favorite hobbies. He was exceptionally knowledgeable with technology and was always eager to learn, troubleshoot, and help others with computer-related problems.

A devoted New England sports fan, Frank faithfully followed the New England Patriots, Boston Red Sox, Boston Celtics, and Notre Dame football. He especially enjoyed talking sports with family and friends, sharing opinions, celebrating victories, and debating the latest games.
