Frank was raised in Detroit and attended school at the University of Detroit and earned an MBA at Michigan State University. He had a lifelong career as President/CEO of SeaWest Coast Guard Credit Union, in Oakland, California, Aerojet CU/American River Federal Credit Union in Rancho Cordova, California and Pontiac Area Teachers Credit Union in Pontiac, Michigan. He served as Board President and Director of the National Credit Union Executives Society and in many capacities and committees with the California Credit Union League and the Michigan Credit Union League. Frank's love for credit union members led him to pioneer new and innovative membership services over his near 50 years of credit union career. Frank’s dad founded the Tandem FCU in Detroit, Michigan. Frank is quoted as saying, “I was born into credit unions. My crib was next to the credit union file cabinets. I guess my life was destined to remain in credit unions. I have been fortunate to have a family and many close colleagues that made my credit union career rewarding and memorable.” Frank enjoyed hunting in Northern Michigan with his father and brothers. He enjoyed archery with his wife, Maggie. After Rambo (husky mix) came along his leisure time was spent with him. Frank was an avid reader of archaeology, astronomy, history, physics and more. Frank was beloved by his many friends and work colleagues, who all knew him to be kind, generous and compassionate about their concerns before his own. His family held the most precious place in his heart, with overflowing love. People wanted to be in his company because of his optimistic outlook on life, his fun attitude and his hearty laugh that was spontaneous and infectious. He will be missed by too many people to count.
