Frank Muzik Jr. age 85 of Savannah, Georgia on Friday, September 19, 2008 at the Saint Joseph's Hospital in Savannah. At the hospital he had received the loving care of his family.
He was born in Passaic and had lived in Garfield, Clifton, West Paterson and Denville before moving to Savanna, Georgia eighteen years ago.
Frank lived his formative years in Clifton where he graduated from Clifton High School with the Class of 1941.
He joined the Navy just out of High School and served with the Navy in the Pacific Theater of the War. He became an expert on Sperry Gyroscopes and other Aviation Instruments. He was discharged from the Navy in 1945. During his Naval Service, he was stationed in Panama and Ecuador (Galapagos Islands) as an air crewman flying PBY patrol planes, guarding the Panama Canal.
He attended Oregon State University in 1959-60 where he took courses in Engineering.
He was employed at Heyden Chemical Company in Garfield from 1946-1958. He joined the Bendix Corporation in Teterboro from 1958- 1968 representing them at various Air Force bases throughout the U.S. and Europe. He then joined Singer Kearfott Aerospace Corporation in Wayne until his retirement in 1988.
He worked for thirty years in the defense industry as an Avionics Engineer.
During his retirement he enjoyed his home in Savannah, Georgia where he joined the Kiwanis Club of Skidaway, Island, Georgia, played golf and enjoyed art. After his retirement, he and his wife traveled extensively worldwide to every continent with the exception of Antarctica.
Frank was gifted with a wonderful sense of humor that made others enjoy his presence. He was always ready with a good joke. As he interfaced with family and friends he was straight forward, forthright, selfless, kind, generous and caring. He was a very special man.
He was truly a family man and made family life a priority. He leaves his family with many wonderful memories of a very loving and devoted husband and father. A wonderful and patient teacher and tutor. Dad passed along a lot of his joys and skills especially his mechanical ability. He especially enjoyed family vacations at the Jersey Shore.
Frank and Evelyn were married in a "very devoted and enjoyable" marriage together for sixty-two years.
Surviving are his loving wife Evelyn (nee Sienon) Muzik; one daughter Jeanie Crone and her husband Wolfgang of Bert, France; one son Douglas Muzik of Kennesaw, Georgia and one sister Lorraine Bremer of Wayne, NJ.
Those planning an expression of sympathy in Frank's memory are asked to consider The Skidway Island Presbyterian Church, 50 Diamond Causeway, Savannah, GA 31411 or The Hospice of Savannah 1674 Chatham Parkway, Savannah, GA 31405.
