He attended the William Penn Charter School in Philadelphia before coming to Princeton, where he played the trumpet in the University band and was a member of Terrace Club and ROTC.
After graduation, he served as a lieutenant in the Army infantry, stationed in Fairbanks, Alaska.
Frank worked as a mechanical engineer for some 20 years, but then created a roadside farmstand in Jobstown with his wife, Mimi, that later became Mr. McGregor’s Garden Farm Market & Deli. With 150 acres of farmland that had been in the family since before the Revolution, Frank became a farmer, raising cattle and various crops. He designed a Dutch Colonial style building that became a community center. Hayrides were offered for local children and the pumpkin patch became so important that when the crop failed, Frank bought a wagonload of pumpkins and randomly scattered them in the field so as not to “disappoint the kids.”
Frank and Mimi attended St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church in Mount Holly, and cherished the fellowship fostered by being part of that community.
Frank died Oct. 2, 2022, at Samaritan Hospice, Mount Holly, N.J. He is survived by sons Franklin and Robert; daughter Mary Hunt; and a granddaughter.
