In Loving Memory of Frank Dominic Pisterzi -March 13, 1935 – May 26, 2025

Frank Dominic Pisterzi, born on March 13, 1935, to Angelo Pisterzi and Flavia Apponi, passed away peacefully on Memorial Day, May 26, 2025 — a fitting tribute for a man who honorably served his country in the United States Army during the Korean Conflict. He was a proud veteran and a true patriot, and his passing on this National Day of Remembrance carries deep significance. Frank was preceded in death by his beloved parents and siblings: Angelo (Shirley) Pisterzi Jr., Harry (Ingrid) Pisterzi, Mary (Frank) Tintari, and Livia (John) Natalie. Frank is survived by his devoted wife, Pearl (nee Bianchi), and their three loving sons: Sergio, Thomas (Jennifer), and Daniel. He also leaves behind many cherished nieces and nephews who will carry his memory forward with pride and affection. A man of strong faith and quiet strength, Frank was a devoted husband, a loving father, and a humble servant of the Lord. He spent 35 dedicated years working for Jewel and was also a skilled fender and body man. Earlier in his career, he worked for Steger Furniture, where he was known for his craftsmanship and work ethic. Frank found beauty in life's simple pleasures—planting flowers, enjoying root beer floats, and especially keeping a fire going in the fireplace all winter long. His warmth, humor, and steadfast presence brought comfort to all who knew him. His life was a blessing, his memory a treasure. He is now reunited with loved ones gone before, and his legacy of service, love, and devotion will live on through his family and all who were touched by his life. Resting at Panozzo Bros.
