Frank Stilwell Obituary

Aged 62, passed away on October 19, 2010, from a massive heart attack at his home in Woodstock, GA. Born on February 15, 1948 in Nashville, TN and raised in Maryland and Delaware by his parents, Francis Charles Stilwell and Melinda Carstensen Stilwell.
Frank will be remembered for his jovial sense of humor; handsome appearance (always equated to movie star Sean Connery); and his strong, dedicated bond with family and friends. He was beloved by all.
He is survived by his wife of 41 years, Jean Kenney Stilwell; and their four children: Shannon Stilwell Woodard, Kelly Stilwell Healy, Scott D Stilwell, and Andrew P Stilwell; and two grandsons: Reilly Hunter Woodard and Ethan Hunter Stilwell; and his sister Patricia Stilwell Burbage.
Memorial services will be announced at a later time.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations made to the Jean K. Stilwell Medical Expenses Fund. Donations can be sent to Regions Bank, 9670 Main St., Woodstock, GA 30188. Account #0141069382. Arrangements by SOUTHCARE CREMATION SOCIETY AND MEMORIAL CENTERS in Marietta. (770) 420-5557.

Jean words cannot express how sorry I am. I lost my husband 5 years ago and I understand and know the pain you are suffering. You will be in my thoughts and prayers for healing of your heart and your body. We love you.

To the Stilwell family:
I'm sorry for your loss. I wonder if Frank attended Sacred Heart Elem. School in Wilmington. I was in school with a Frank Stilwell and remember him with fondness, even the drawing he made in 4th or 5th grade for an art contest.
Would you let me know if this is the same Frank? Thank you
