He also enjoyed travel, music, and often painfully, the Philadelphia Phillies. First and foremost, he enjoyed anything with his wife, Dianne.
Dianne was born in Allentown to the late Allen and Hazel (Snyder) Reitz. She spent her working life as a nurse and particularly enjoyed the care of the geriatric patient. She also liked music and travel, as well as needlepoint. However, what she enjoyed the most was dancing with the love of her life, Frank.

Frank was also survived by siblings, Robert "Butch" Wendling of Topton and Susan and husband Frank Sterner of Fleetwood. Dianne was survived by siblings.
