Grade.
When in 1976 the family moved to Northern New Jersey Frank attended 2nd. Grade
and continued his studies on the elementary school in Franklin Lakes.
At that time his sister was attending 4th grade in the same school.
In 1980 when he had almost completed 6th grade the family moved again, now to
Blairstown where he had to finish off his 6th Grade year in the Blairstown
elementary school.
In September, 1980 Frank continued in 7th Grade at the North Warren Regional
High School, the same school where Elleke was attending 9th Grade.
In 1986 he graduated and went on to the West Virginia University (WVU).
In 1992 he graduated from WVU in computer science and stayed on with the
university where he worked part time while studying for his master degree.
In 1996 he accepted a job in Allentown and left the university. However since
his actual workplace was at Bloomberg in New Jersey he left home and moved into
an apartment in Princeton, N.J.
In 1997 he stopped working for the firm and returned home with the intention to
set up his own shop.
While he was getting himself organized he was offered a job in West Virginia
with WVNET.
It happened to be a job right in his alley and he accepted.
So, Frank moved back to what has become his second hometown, Morgantown, West
Virginia.
