Frank was born on August 13, 1970 in Hoboken, NJ to Sergio and Rosaria DeRobertis. Frank graduated from Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences in 2000 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Pharmacy, making the Deans List in 1994, 1995, 1996 and 1999.

Frank was a devoted son, brother, uncle, husband, father and friend. He was a car and motorcycle enthusiast who was a mastermind in repair work. Frank was an extremely intelligent and talented individual whose favorite subjects included math, science and music. He often displayed his many talents through his art, his creative woodwork and home remodeling projects. Frank’s charismatic personality was larger than life and his passion for life was apparent to all who knew him.
Above all, Frank’s favorite role was being a dad and he enjoyed spending quality time with his son. Frankie Jr. was the most important part of his life and Frank’s untimely passing will forever impact his son’s and families’ lives. Frank’s family will always remind his son of the amazing, loving father he was and will always encourage and support him to passionately pursue and accomplish all of his future goals in life.
Frank will be deeply missed by his family and friends. For all of us who knew and loved him dearly, Frank is with us in heart and spirit; now and forever.
