Frank died suddenly May 16, 2006, following a brief illness.

After his Princeton premed and football days, Frank attended medical school at the University of Pennsylvania, served in the Navy medical corps in Philadelphia and Bermuda, and then trained in orthopedics at University of Pennsylvania Hospital.

Frank married his high school sweetheart, Lillian Grivner, in 1955, and they settled in East Stroudsburg, Pa., where he established his practice and they raised their six children.

As a physician, educator, and community activist, Frank became one of Monroe County's most prominent citizens. He served as chairman of orthopedics and chief of staff at Pocono Hospital; was president of the Pennsylvania Orthopedic Society, chairman of his Catholic diocese board of education, and team physician for several local high schools and East Stroudsburg State College; and assumed many other civic and church responsibilities. In 2004 he was presented the Golden Deed Award as an outstanding humanitarian, an honor rarely bestowed by East Stroudsburg.

At Princeton, Frank was given the sobriquet "Dr. Love." In East Stroudsburg he earned that title by tirelessly offering his medical knowledge, exceptional orthopedic skills, and good counsel with compassion, humor, and humility to all who sought his help. He dedicated his life to serving his family, his profession, his church, and his entire community. Throughout his life he was extremely proud of his association with Princeton and 1954.

The class offers deepest sympathy to Lil, their children, and grandchildren.
