Passed away peacefully with family by his side at the age of 82.
Frank was born in Staten Island, attended Port Richmond High School and went on to be a butcher for 35 years. He spent his 82 years here on the Island.
He was the beloved husband to Patrica A. Micka (nee Colabroy) for 56 years. He is survived by his sister, Maryann Scafidi, and had two sisters, Joan Sicliano
and Carol Kaufman who he will now join in heaven. He is survived by his daughter, Andrea Tantillo, son, Frank Micka, Jr. and son-in-law, Frank Tantillo.
He was grandfather to Michael and Matthew Tantillo.
Frank enjoyed hunting, fishing and crabbing in his earlier years but then later on found a new love for gardening where he grew amazing vegetables and
cantaloupes. His tomatoes were so delicious and he even went on to win the Staten Island Advance contest for the largest and heaviest on the Island.
He will be missed by family and friends. Rest in Peace!
