Frank died June 11, 2013, from complications of diabetes. A chemist who lived for many years in Morris Plains and finally in Parsippany, N.J., he devoted most of his career to scaling up pilot plants in the pharmaceuticals industry.

His last job was working for the State of New Jersey in computerizing the record-keeping systems of its parole department. In retirement he was a volunteer at Morristown Medical Center, where a colleague remembers him as “a wonderful man.”

A graduate of Pingry School, Frank majored in chemistry and sang in the Glee Club and Chapel Choir. He joined Terrace Club and the Woodrow Wilson Society. After college he earned a master’s degree in teaching.

He is survived by a son, Everett; a daughter, Margo Sharp; and grandchildren James, Jessica, and Laura Simons, and Ted, Maggie, Arielle, Tom, and Julia Sharp. To them all, the class extends its sympathy.
