Francis (Frank) Anthony and Vera Lordi.
Most recently Frank was employed by the R.E. Michel Company in Glen Burnie, MD. Frank started with the company in 1997 as a member of the company's Warranty Department. Based on his significant business experience Frank was selected to manage the company's parts distribution center in 2001, a position he held until his retirement in 2014. Frank was as dependable as the sun and could be counted on by any member of the R.E. Michel team to get any job done and done right. Frank was a coach and mentor to his team and when adversity struck, his teammates could always count on a smile and to hear the words "well, in a perfect world."
Frank was a diehard fan of the Miami Dolphins, Atlanta Braves, Tour De France and NASCAR. He was known as the family guru of Trivial Pursuit and loved vacationing to the beach and Disney World. He was devoted to his canines, Yogi and Bella.
