Frank Guerriero Obituary

FRANK ABBOTT GUERRIERO
DEC. 1, 1931 - NOV. 13, 2012
Frank Guerriero, a man who was dear to his family and many friends died on November 13th at the age of 80. He will be greatly missed by all who came to know him.  Frank grew up in Livingston, was in the Livingston High School class of 1950, and served the U. S. Air Force, 1951-55.
Well known for his affable demeanor, many enjoyed his company while he worked for Ecclefields, Serv-All and other area grocery stores.  He retired as a grocery store produce manager for Liberty Market in 2002.  A tireless worker and fixture in the Livingston area, Frank could be found involved in many charitable enterprises for the good of those in need of help.  He was a lifelong parishioner of St. Jude's Catholic Church, a charter member of the Knights of Columbus 9363, member of the American Legion and active volunteer with St. Vincent de Paul.
Frank was preceded in death by his father Peter Guerriero and his mother Annie Machado.
Frank is survived by his wife of 61 years, Anna Mae; his children Michael Guerriero and his wife Rosemarye of Bridgeville, Anthony Guerriero and his wife Marguerite of Anchorage AK, Roxane Wales and her husband David of San Bruno and Marty Guerriero of Kihei HI; and his 8 grandchildren and his 2 great-grandchildren.  He is also survived by his brother, John Guerriero of San Diego and sister, Esther Baisden of Bakersfield.
We are gathering to celebrate Frank's long and loving life on Monday, November 19th at St. Jude's Catholic Church in Livingston.  The viewing will begin at 9 AM, Rosary at 10 AM with a Mass starting at 10:30AM.  A reception will follow in the adjoining hall.  Burial service will be held at the Santa Nella National Cemetery on Monday, November 26th at 10:30 AM.  In lieu of flowers, please make donations to St. Jude's Church, the Knights of Columbus 9363 or to Livingston St. Vincent de Paul.

Frank was one of the nicest people I have ever known. I don't think I can remember a time I didn't see him with a smile and a kind word to share. My thoughts and prayers are with the Guerriero family. May happy memories keep him with you always.

I remember growing up and seeing Frank at Serv-all then at Liberty market. Always smiling and happy. If you look up Happy in the dictionary you will for sure see Franks picture there. God needed someone to look after his produce. God sure got the best. God bless your family. G. Cuevas and family.

There are no words to describe how we felt when we heard the news of Frank's passing. He was a Livingston Icon. A wonderful and passionate man. My heartfelt condolences to Mrs. Guerrero, and all the family. May the Faith you have in our Lord, bring you peace and comfort thru the days ahead with God's Blessings...

Eddie & Karen (Loving) Tiggs send their sincere condolences to Mrs. Guerriero, Mike, Tony, Roxane, and Marty. From the days at St. Jude's Catholic School where my parents, Frank & Anne formed a lifelong relationship; to our recent Thursday nights playing 'Mexican Train' dominos. and everything in between. Mr. Guerriero leaves a legacy of joy, as he always had a warm smile and something nice to say. He leaves encouragement for all of us to live our lives in the same manner - completing a job with integrity and pride. Most of all, he leaves a legacy of profound love for life, his wife, family and his friends.
May each of you find peace in the memories he leaves behind.

Mr. Guerriero's dash of memories is profound. I thank God for the opportunity to have crossed paths.

I'm Glad He Was In Our Dash
From Birth - To Eternity
