Spotlight on Frank Barsky

For September we would like to spotlight Frank Barsky! Frank was born and

raised in Northeast Philly. He was married to his wife, Rita, and they had 4

children together– Christian, Deana, Amie, and Brian, followed by 4 grand-

children. He worked for Philadelphia Electric as a lineman for many years.

He served in the US Army for 2 years. Frank’s favorite food is linguine in

clam sauce, yum! Some of his hobbies include fishing and playing music. He

used to enjoy playing the accordion and keyboard. Some of his best memories

were times spent down the Jersey shore with his family. Frank is known to al-

ways have a smile on his face. Frank enjoys many activities here such as listen-

ing to music and singing along, reminiscing, and enjoying some good food from our special events! He is a beloved father, his

children are always visiting and setting up

facetime/zoom chats with him. You can also find

Frank rooting for the Philadelphia sports teams

such as the

Phillies base-

ball and Ea-

gles football

teams. It was

nice getting

to know you,

Frank!
