Frank J.
Bubba
Jun 1, 1929 — May 6, 2026
Frank J. Bubba, 96, passed away on May 6, 2026, surrounded by his loving family. Born June 1, 1929, in Easton, he was a son of the late Thomas and Catherine (Torchia) Bubba.
Frank was a graduate of Easton High School and honorably served his country in the United States Air Force. Following his military service, he worked as a General Agent for John Hancock Life Insurance Company before becoming the proud owner of The Stove House and Feasta Pizza.
Frank later spent 40 years living in Florida, where he embraced the warm climate and active lifestyle he loved. For many years, he worked in the pro shop and assisted with scheduling at Hole in the Wall Golf Club, remaining active well into his 90s. An avid golfer, Frank treasured both the game and the many friendships it brought into his life. He also enjoyed the music of Frank Sinatra and took great pride in his Italian heritage.
He was predeceased by his beloved wife, Edwina Ann "Tina" (Kerr) Bubba; his brothers, Joseph, Andrew, and Thomas Bubba; and his sisters, Mary Trincheria and Catherina Elizabetta.
Frank is survived by his loving daughters, Kimberly Demyan and her husband, Louis, and Michele Dieter and her husband, Jeffrey; his sister, Lena Zamataro and her husband, James; his cherished grandchildren, Jacalyn (Andrew), Kelly (Ryan), Brittany (Kenneth), and Ryan; and his beloved great-grandchildren, Jilian, Greysen, Ashton, Rylee, Caitlyn, Reese, Ariyana, and Kyleigh. He is also survived by many loving nieces and nephews and his Vero Bethlehem family.
Frank will be remembered for his strong work ethic, his love of golf and music, and, above all, his deep love for his family and the devotion he showed to them throughout his life. He lived a long and full life, and his memory will be cherished by all who knew him.
