Francis Prestejohn Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Keefe Funeral Home - Arlington on Mar. 7, 2026.
Francis J Prestejohn - Of Woburn, passed away peacefully surrounded by his family on March 6th at the age of 75.

Frank was the beloved husband of Maureen (Kelley) Prestejohn for over 42 years. He was a proud and devoted father to Ken Prestejohn and his wife Victoria, of Merrimack, NH, Matthew Prestejohn and his wife Janelle, of Pelham, NH, and Steven Prestejohn of Woburn. Nothing brought him greater joy than being "Papa" to his cherished grandchildren, Grayson and Landon. Beloved brother of Sandra DiGiorgio and Margaret Browning of Woburn along with countless cousins, nieces, and nephews.

Frank proudly served his country in the United States Navy, an experience that reflected his strong sense of duty and commitment. After his service, he built a life centered around family, hard work, and the things he loved most.

He had a deep passion for fishing and was a devoted Boston sports fan who never missed a chance to cheer on his teams.

Above all else, Frank will be remembered for his love of family, his steady presence, and the countless memories he created with those closest to him. His family meant everything to him, and his influence and love will live on through them.

Relatives and friends are invited to a visitation at the Keefe Funeral Home, 5 Chestnut St., ARLINGTON on Thursday March 12th, from 9:30-11 am. Followed by a funeral mass in Saint Agnes' Church at 11:30 am. Burial with military honors will follow in Mount Pleasant Cemetery in Arlington.

To Maureen and Family, Peggy Ann, and Sandy:

Sending you all thoughts and prayers for your loss. Memories of our younger days of family gatherings hold each of our cousins (present and past) in our hearts forever. All of our parents with Nana and Grampa raised us with strong family values and held us together through our many family fun weekends. No-one is ever forgotten when they leave us -just missed until we are reunited. I can´t be physically there next week but will say a special prayer for Frankie and all of our Families.
Love to All,
Maureen Serrecchia
