Frank (Sonny) Smallacombe, Jr., age 73 and a lifelong resident of Old Forge, passed away Sunday at home. He was preceded in death by his wife, Rose Marie (Cookie) Smallacombe, on June 6, 1998. Born on May 28, 1939, son of the late Frank, Sr., and Della Biscontini Smallacombe, Frank was educated in Old Forge Schools, before serving in the United States Army. An iron worker most recently working ten years for the Berwick Power Plant, he was a proud 40 year member of the Local #489. Of Roman Catholic faith, he was a former member of St. Lawrence O’Toole Church in Old Forge. An outdoorsman who enjoyed hunting, fishing and gardening, his favorite pastime was woodworking. An avid sports fan, he rooted for the Pittsburgh Steelers, Philladelphia Phillies and the PSU Nittany Lions. A loving father, grandfather and brother, Sonny will be dearly missed by those who loved him. |
