Frank (Junior) J. Mona, age 80, a forty-three year resident of Wayne, NJ, passed at home on Saturday, August 29, 2020.
Junior was born to the late Francis and Josephine Mona and raised at the family home on 5th Street in Brooklyn, NY. Just after high school Junior was drafted into the US Army and served two years mostly stationed in Panama. Upon his discharge from the Army he found work in the building maintenance industry in New York City. Through the years he working for the Cigna Company in Wayne, NJ and the GHI Insurance Company in New York City before retiring in 2008.
He met the love of his life, Marie Mansi, while at work in New York City. Marie would pass Junior’s office each day as she went out for coffee and would often ask him if she could get him a cup. One day Junior offered to take Marie to dinner, as thanks for always offering to get him coffee. They soon fell in love and married. After their honeymoon in Costa Rica they had a loving and caring marriage of twenty-nine years that was blessed with a son they named Frank.
Junior will be lovingly remembered as an outgoing, nice guy who made friends easily. He enjoyed talking to people and loved to go to the Meadowlands to watch and bet on the horses. He also liked trips to Atlantic City and Las Vegas. His son Frank fondly remembers family trips to Disney World and summer vacations in Wildwood Crest at the Jersey Shore.
Frank was the loving husband of the late Marie Mona (d.2001); the devoted father of Frank Mona and his loving companion Joy cherished grandfather of Adrianna and Francesca Mona; and dearly loved brother of Marie (Dolly) Mona of New York City.
