Schaller Colleen Schaller and her late husband Frank arrived in Needham in 1963, thinking they would be here only a few years. Born and raised in Connecticut, Colleen is a graduate of the Berkeley School in New York. She met Frank at her first job at Univac, where she was an assistant. They were married in 1961 and Frank’s profession as a mechanical engineer for Univac gave them the opportunity to live in four states in two years before they eventually settled in Needham. Over the next 46 years, Colleen and Frank raised two children and became grandparents four times. Colleen continues to live in this same home today. Colleen is a tireless volunteer and her efforts have benefited a long list of organizations within our community.
