Frank Anton Clementi, beloved husband, father, grandfather, brother, and friend, passed away peacefully on January 2, 2026, at the age of 81 in Eatontown, NJ, surrounded by his loving family. Born on April 22, 1944, in Long Branch, NJ, Frank was known for his kindness, strong work ethic, and devotion to those he loved.
Frank proudly served his country as a Sergeant in the United States Air Force, specializing in communications. He later dedicated many years to the United States Postal Service, where he built a career he truly enjoyed and took great pride in his work.
A man who enjoyed working with his hands, Frank had a passion for fixing and working on cars and took great pride in maintaining his home and property. He found peace by the ocean, often enjoying quiet moments watching sailboats and taking in the calm of the sea.
Above all else, Frank cherished time spent with his grandchildren, Ariana and Michael. Their laughter and presence brought him immense joy, and he treasured every moment with them. His family—his devoted wife, Gloria, his son Brian, and his daughter-in-law Kimberly—was always at the center of his life.
Frank is survived by his loving wife Gloria; his son Brian and daughter-in-law Kimberly; his grandchildren, Ariana and Michael; and his siblings and their spouses John and Clara, Victor and Patricia, Patricia and Donald, and Kathleen. He was predeceased by his parents, John and Madeline, and his siblings Midge and Walter.
Frank will be remembered as a kind, dependable, and hardworking man whose love for his family defined his life. He will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered by all who knew him.
A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated on Wednesday, January 7, 2025 at 10:30 am at St. Michael's Church in Long Branch and followed by an interment with Military Honors at Mt. Carmel Cemetery in West Long Branch.
In lieu of flowers, contributions in Frank's name can be made to St. Vincent De Paul Society at St Michael's Church, 800 Ocean Ave, Long Branch NJ 07740.
