Lawrence DeFrank Sr., of Gloucester City succumbs from heart disease and diabetes

DE FRANK
Lawrence C. , Sr.   
On December 15, 2007, age 66, of Gloucester City, NJ, after a long and valiant battle with heart disease and diabetes, finally succumbed in the hospital with his family and dear friends at his side.
He was the beloved husband of Anna Margaret Kususky DeFrank and loving father of Justin Kususky of Blenheim, Dorothy DeFrank of Rockaway Park, NY and Lawrence DeFrank, Jr. of Gloucester City. He was the adoring grandfather of Brittany and Justin Kususky, Stephanie DeFrank, Jefferson Escalante and dear brother of Dorothy Ellis. He was predeceased by his sister Lillian and brothers James and John. He is also survived by a man he considered a son, Rocco Ward and Jamie Daily who he loved as a daughter.
Prior to his illness, Larry enjoyed taking long drives with his wife Margaret and listening to country music. He also enjoyed playing and spending time with his grandchildren. When not out and about he could be found relaxing at home watching one of his favorite movies.
A true "Warrior" who loved to be a "Wanderer" and was not much of a "Cry-Baby", he will be remembered for his great sense of humor.
In keeping with Larry's wishes A Service of Rememberence was held at the ETHERINGTON-CRERAN FUNERAL HOME in Gloucester City at the convenience of his family.
