Frank worked with the Town of Mamaroneck Fire Department for 28 years and worked his way up to Lieutenant Oct. 7, 1971. Prior to becoming a paid firefighter, Frank served 7 years as a volunteer at the same firehouse. Frank was also an electrician, a trade he enjoyed until the very end. He graduated from Mamaroneck High School in January of 1945, mid-year in order to serve his country as a member of the U.S. Army during WW II. A very patriotic man, Frank was a proud member of the American Legion, Post 347, in Larchmont, NY. An avid fan of the NY Jets and NY Yankees, Frank never missed a game. He enjoyed watching and going to games with his son-in-law Eric and nephew Richard. One of his wishes was finally fulfilled this year, to see the Yankees play one last time in Yankee Stadium. He attended a game this past summer with his grandson Gregory. Frank was a soft, kind, caring man who was well liked and was always there with a kind word for those in need. Frank J. Felice will be loved and missed dearly by his family and friends.
