Frank-VillellaOn January 12, 2017, Frank passed on to join his heavenly family and Our Lord Jesus Christ.

Born in Canton, Ohio to Ralph and Dorothy Villella on January 13, 1945, Frank was preceded in death by his parents and brother Bob.

On October 16, 1965 he married his soul mate and high school sweetheart, Susan Toolan. This loving union produced three wonderful children and seven beautiful grandchildren.

In 1969 he moved his family to Florida where he worked in the family business. After 15 years they settled in Peachtree City. He was the longtime owner of F&S Backhoe Service and was well respected in the business community.

Throughout his years he enjoyed coaching his children from the bench, and his grandchildren from the bleachers. Upon retirement he enjoyed many outdoor activities, traveling, the Florida sunshine, and the sound of a win in Las Vegas!

He is survived by his devoted wife of 51 years, Sue, and his three children; Tony and Lisa (Vincent, Nicolette, and Michael Jurewicz), Frank Jr. and Maureen (Erin and Nico), Kim and Roger Roberts (Tyler and Valerie), his sister Mary and Bob Troyer (Tiffany and Tammy), and his special Aunt Louise, along with numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, and nephews. All who knew and loved him, especially his “Crew” from Canton, Ohio, will sorely miss him.

The family would like to thank the doctors and nursing staff, especially nurse Jody, for the wonderful care they provided our loved one.

A memorial service will be held on Friday, January 20th at Carmichael Funeral Home in Peachtree City, Ga. from 4-8 p.m. Funeral services will be held at Holy Trinity Catholic Church on Saturday, January 21st at 11 a.m. A memorial service will also be held in Canton, Ohio.
