Frank Frederick Cart Jr.

Frank was born in New York City on February 20, 1935 to the late Frank Cart, Sr., and Mary Cart. He was a devoted husband to Dina (Giardina) Cart for 55 years; to whom he called the woman of his dreams.

In addition to his wife, he leaves behind his daughter Victoria Cart of Cromwell, his sister Joyce Malcarne and brother-in-law Fran Malcarne of Deep River. He was predeceased by his daughter Lori Cart.

Frank was raised in Chester and was a 1953 graduate of Valley Regional High School. He served his country for two years working as a cryptographer at the Pentagon. He was also employed at UARCO for many years, as well as being a self employed painter.

Frank loved the outdoors and took many hunting and fishing trips with Dina. A proud moment for him was when Dina caught a huge Pike while they were fishing in Canada. Every year Frank looked forward to raising tomatoes in his garden, enough to make a great pasta sauce that would last all year.

Calling hours will be held on Friday, August 7th, from 4-7pm at Swan Funeral Home, 1224 Boston Post Rd., Old Saybrook. Burial with military honors will be held in Resurrection Cemetery at 10:30 am on Saturday, August 8th.
