Frank Lanza

Frank was born in Molfetta, Italy to Laura and Cesare Lanza. In 1969 Frank immigrated to the United States in search of his American dream. Frank settled in Hoboken and started his new life at the age of 22. Frank worked as an electrician and electric inspector until the day he retired in 2015. He worked for the City of Newark and the Building Inspection Underwriters of Pennsylvania. He also owned two electrical companies, ‘Frank’s Electrical’ and ‘Bayview Electrical Services Inc.’ Frank was a skilled craftsman who was very passionate and proud about his trade. In 1989 Frank married the love of his life, Marie, and the following year they welcomed their daughter, Tiffany Laura. In 1993 his family moved from Jersey City to Bayonne. He was an avid NFL and WWE fan and would never miss an opportunity to discuss either.
