Frankie J. Northup, age 52, passed away at his home on Tuesday, September, 5, 2023.

He was born on Saturday, December 20, 1970, in (Blossburg/Wellsboro) Pennsylvania to Frank and Elsie Northup (Saunders).

For education, Frank attended and graduated from Cowanesque Valley High School, Class of 1989.

He was a former employee of the Westfield Tannery in the late 90s, and a businessman for many years, owning the Frankie’s Second Hand shop in Westfield, which like many of his other adventures in life, included his greatest treasure in life, his children Lucas, Colton, and Frankielyn.

His hobbies included collecting Tonka trucks, going to local flea markets, sitting on his porch, and occasionally shouting at cars who would speed past his house. He was also an Avid Dallas Cowboys fan.

When he was not collecting or searching flea markets for his next big find, he could be found at Knoxville Firehall, where he was a former firefighter and social member.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by a sister, Mary Belle Northup.

Survived by his children, Lucas (Amanda) Northup of Whitesville, NY, Colton (MaryAnn) Northup of Pittsburgh, PA, and Frankielyn Northup of Knoxville, PA.
