TerexCranes.
Frank G. Bardonaro, Sr. died on October
21. He spent his entire career in the
transportation, crane and rigging industries
as a leader andmentor to hundreds of
co-workers at local crane rental companies.
He was known for his work ethic, passion for
winning and determination. Those qualities
have been instilled in the hearts of everyone
he was around, according to his obituary in
The Cincinnati Enquirer. He went over 30
years without taking a sick day at work and
personified the “Never Give Up” motto.
Bardonaro was bestowed the honor of
Hamilton County Sheriff Special Deputy,
a Kentucky Colonel and amember of the
Elks Lodge for 30 years. He was amember
of Sons of Italy, Mayor of Crestview, KY,
President of theMen’s Civic Club, member
of Pendleton County Country Club, and a Purcell High School
graduate. He was a little league baseball coach for nearly 20
years, assistant coach for the Campbell County Red Devil’s
Football team, assistant coach for Newport Catholic High School
baseball and a positive influence in the lives of hundreds of
children over the years. He was also a proudmember of the
NRA.
Bardonaro’s work in the crane rental industry was instrumental
in developing dispatching systems, working with DOTs throughout
the country and recruiting and training people to work in the
industry. His insight, dedication and “customer first” mentality
were part of the culture he instilled at Carlisle Crane (Maxim
Crane) and AmQuip Crane. He enjoyed SCRA and ConExpo events
for nearly 40 years and leaves a legacy of family members
still active today in the crane industry including his son Frank
Bardonaro, Jr. (president, Maxim Crane), nephew Bryan Carlisle
(CEO, Maxim Crane), and nearly a dozen other family members
working for crane rental companies.
Bardonaro is survived by his son Frank (Priscilla) Bardonaro,
Jr., Deanna (Bryan) Sturgeon, Deborah (James) Morgan,
Angela Bardonaro, Brad (Amy) Adams and Sally (Todd) Heine;
grandfather of Tyler, Brandon, Kelsey, Alexys, Ethan, Mitchel,
Camryn, Megan and Ivey; son of August and the lateMary
Bardonaro, Sr.; brother of August (Marcia) Bardonaro, Jr, Bruce
