Frank will also be warmly remembered by his wonderful daughters in law, Megan and Tami, his four grandchildren, Hudson, Mackenzie, Keaton and Elsie, his sister Robin, as well as his many dear nieces and nephews - Elizabeth, Jim, Tony, Mike, Joe, Bob, Frank, Alyssa, Ronnie, Wendy, Tami and Jill. Frank was predeceased by his mother Hazel Costa, his father Frank Costa, Sr. and his beloved sister Missy Monks.

A native of New Jersey, Frank was a proud alumnus of the University of Alabama and a lifelong Tide fan. He also adored Lake George, New York and spent time every summer of the last six decades on its beautiful waters. Frank worked many years for Bush Boake Allen and retired as a Vice President and General Manager. Over the course of his career the family lived in Toronto, Montreal, London and New Jersey before retiring to Mount Pleasant in 2002. He came out of retirement to work as an ambassador at Wild Dunes for a number of years beside his dear friend Bob Furer. Frank and Gail found a lovely home here in Mount Pleasant and made many wonderful friends with whom they enjoyed golfing, playing cards and spending time.
