Frank Zugell was born

and raised in

Pittsburgh, PA. Frank

went to a Civilian

Conservation Camp in

Virginia as a teenager

and then served in the

U.S. Army with the

31 Infantry Division

during World War II from 1943 to 1946.

Although they were scheduled to go to Europe,

plans were changed and they were sent through

the Panama Canal to Asia. His Division saw action

in the Philippines, the Dutch East Indies, and New

Guinea.

After returning to the States, Frank went back to

Pittsburgh and practiced his vocation, that of a

brick layer. He wrote a letter to the editor of the

Pittsburgh Press about an important labor issue

which caught the attention of Mayor David L.

Lawrence. That led to a job with the city working

on a variety of public works projects.

As a resident at Highland Oaks, Frank keeps

up-to-date on the latest news, participates in

daily exercise, reads a lot, and attends most of

our music programs.
