Frank Ricco dedicated his life to community service, earning the nickname "Mr. Brownsville," even though he served only one term as an elected official. Ricco, owner of Brownsville Bus Lines and president of the Greater Brownsville Area Chamber of Commerce, passed away Thursday at the age of 94.
He served as a Brownsville Township supervisor for one term in the 1960s. According to Jack Lawver, a longtime Brownsville council member and Ricco's transportation coordinator, Ricco used his own truck and his children to plow snow and spread ashes in the winter while he was a supervisor because the township didn't own a truck.
