First wife of Frank. She never remarried.

This one, at least for us Sinatraphiles, seems a huge one; hadn't noted she had passed the century milestone, but certainly should have realized that, as she was about her husband's age and he, as pretty much everyone knows, was born in late 1915.

She was a really great fine lady who never spoke I’ll of her former husband despite having many reasons to.

You'd be surprised how little "pretty much everyone knows"...a recent
clue on Jeopardy! provoked the names of three different New Jersey
cities for Frank's birthplace, all of them wrong....r

Is she the one who later married Zeppo? Or Gummo? I'm pretty sure it was one of the guys not usually answered when someone is asked to "Name a Marx brother."

No Sinatra’s last wife - who died last year - was Barbara Marx who had been married to Zeppo.

Sinatra was born in the city that hosted the first recorded, scored
baseball match between organized clubs, which is also the site of the
first brewery in the Americas (chartered by Peter Stuyvesant). So
that's one pretty goddamned American place.

Not to mention that Ultimate Fight Between Good and Evil,
with Marlon (the younger version) Brando vs. Lee J. Cobb.

to which dannyb needs to add that Eva Marie Saint
was there, too.

That's an amusing punchline given that one of the forces behind
Prohibition was (completely understandable) hatred of G*rm*ns and
their universal compulsive beer-swilling.
