Frigo was born on July 3, 1931 to Pasquale Frigo and Camilla née Rocheleau Frigo in Pound, Wisconsin. His father established the Frigo Brothers cheese company of Iron Mountain together with his four brothers in 1939. Leo Frigo eventually became director of the company's Lena plant, the Frigo Cheese Corporation, and then its president. He retired from the company in 1983. He died on February 13, 2001 due to injuries from a car accident while delivering food to the needy.
