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.
