In Memoriam: Red Bank-Raised RBR Grad, Frank Mancino, 88

Red Bank-raised Frank Mancino died on July 24 after a long illness. He was 88.

Born in Holmdel, Frank grew up in Red Bank and graduated from Red Bank High School.

“Frank served in the U.S. Navy and retired with the highest rank you could get as an enlisted sailor at the age of 39. After 15 years of living the good life of retirement (at his ripe young age) boating along the NJ coastal waterways, Frank decided to go back to work for the U.S. Post Office. Finally, at the age of 70, Frank retired from the U.S. Post Office.”
