Frank Melino

February 3, 1931 - February 4, 2016

On February 4th, Frank Melino grasped hands with the Lord and walked toward the eternal light to join his beloved wife of 60 years Gloria (Moore). Now together in eternal peace, they can watch over and guide their family which was their main source of joy and happiness. Frank was born on February 3, 1931 and lived for most of his life in Hudson. He leaves behind 3 children, Frank (Ellen), Karen (Karl) Scherer, Laurie (Edward) Unkel. In addition, he had 7 grandchildren Kristin Koloniaris, Ryan Melino, Jason Scherer, Kara Tiernan, Trevor, Travis, and Tyler Brodowski and 14 Great Grand Children. Frank was the son of the late Joseph and Lucinda Melino and is predeceased by 13 brothers and sisters. Frank had a great love for life and together with his wife loved to travel and have a good time. He will surely miss his good friend Bill Martin that he spent hours with chatting over coffee and bagels at the Firemen’s home. He was a life-time member of Hudson Elks Lodge and an avid golfer which earned him the nickname of “down the middle Frank”. Frank was as passionate about a hard day’s work as he was about everything else. Those passions lead him to many successful business ventures over the years. He was the President of F.J.R. Contractors, a Contracting business he started with his brothers Joseph and Ralph in 1962, a partner in FM Development Company started in 1985, and a partner in Bagel Tyme started in 1989. Frank will be laid to rest at the Cedar Park Cemetery beside his wife Gloria and at his request there will no calling hours. To leave an online condolence visit: www.saccomcdonaldvalenti.com
