Frank Peter Loglisci
May 10, 1918 — April 17, 2008
Frank Peter Loglisci, of Stamford, passed away peacefully at home surrounded by his loving family, on April 17, 2008. Born May 10, 1918, he was the son of the late Raffaele and Antonia DeGenaro Loglisci of Stamford.
Frank began his career with the Stamford Police Department in 1946 having been appointed a Supernumerary by Mayor Charles E. Moore and then in 1947 being appointed a patrolman until his retirement in January 1, 1992. Frank held Badge #1 of the Stamford Police Department for over seventeen years, the longest period of time of any police officer.
Frank was affectionately known as the �"Mayor of Bedford Street for all the years that he patrolled Bedford Street and forever there after. Frank said that he had been fortunate enough to serve in a position where he had come in contact with so many people and had been able to help a few. My memories are many and most happy ones, I will cherish these memories and say goodbye with a smile and a tear.
Frank was a charter member of the Police Anchor Club #25, a member of the Connecticut State Police Association, an honorary life long member of the St. Augustine Council of the Knights of Columbus and member and past president of the Gravinese Mutual Aid Society and a parishioner of Sacred Heart RC Church in Stamford.
