Frank Samarro Obituary

Frank J. Samarro, Sr., 81, of Wyckoff, NJ, passed away peacefully in the early hours of June 21, 2025.

He is survived by his high school sweetheart and wife of 59 years, Lorraine Samarro. He was also the proud father of Frank, Jr. and Jonathan Samarro. Frank was delighted to welcome his daughter-in-law, Lori, into the family, along with Lori and Frank, Jr.’s four children: Kathryn, Andrew, Elizabeth, and Michael Samarro.

Frank grew up in Jersey City alongside his brothers, Ronald and George. He attended St. Peter's Prep High School—Class of 1961—where he was known for his prowess on the baseball field. He went on to graduate from Pace University in Manhattan and thereafter began his long career in accounting, ultimately operating his own public accounting firm, Samarro & Associates.
