Francis Renshaw Obituary
Haddon Heights - Francis "Frank" J. Renshaw, age 77, of Haddon Heights, NJ, passed away peacefully on November 12, 2018 surrounded by his loving family. He was born to the late Charles and Mildred (nee Woollam) in Philadelphia, PA. Frank proudly served in the US Marine Corps from 1959-1966. While serving in the Marines, he earned the National Defense Service Medal and was a recognized Rifle Marksman and Pistol Expert. He pursued a career in electronics communications with RCA and later worked in sales in cellular communications.
Frank is survived by his beloved wife, Shirley Renshaw (nee Bowser); daughters, Larissa Whitman and her husband Tom, and April Spaltro and her husband John; siblings, Charles Renshaw and his wife Beverly, and Mildred Renshaw; grandchildren, Charles, Nathan, Merina, Emma, and Jacob; and nieces and nephews, Christina, Rebecca and her husband Robert, Ethan and Liam.
Frank was a devoted husband, brother, father, grandfather, uncle and friend. He loved skiing, traveling and the outdoors but above all, he loved his family. He lived every day to the fullest, with gratitude for all of life's treasures, teaching us to find joy in each day no matter the circumstances. Everyone who had the fortune to know Frank loved and respected him and his kind, generous spirit. He had a gift to make everyone he knew feel special and important. Frank will be missed by all who knew and loved him.
