Lendemer (nee Morino) (11/8/30 - 12/11/20); father of Richard Lendemer; grandfather of James C. Lendemer and Anneliese D. Chen.
Frank grew up on a farm in Germany and had a life long love for animals, farming, and dancing German waltzes and polkas with his wife.

Thereafter, Frank graduated from Standard Evening High School in Philadelphia and obtained his American High School diploma.
