Francis 'Frank' Anthony Sogga Jr., born February 12, 1937, passed away peacefully on November 3, 2025, surrounded by his loving family.

Frank is preceded in death by his father, Frank Sogga Sr. and wife Stella; his mother, Carolyn Arena; and his loving grandparents, Nicholas and Rose.

On September 20, 1959, Frank married Jane Ann Hentrich, with whom he shared a lifetime of love, laughter, and cherished memories. Together, they built a family rooted in love and togetherness.

Frank had a long and dedicated career as a Sales Manager for Gulf Oil, where he was admired for his integrity and unwavering work ethic. Outside of work, he found great joy in life's simple pleasures-spending time with family, golfing, and enjoying the excitement of horse racing. One of his most memorable moments came recently when he was able to fulfill a dream and attend The Masters with his grandson, Evan.

He is survived by his devoted wife, Jane; his brother, Don and wife Joyce; his children, Steve and wife Amy, and Chris and wife Monica; his beloved grandchildren, Celeste (Jermaine), Stephanie (Christian), Joshua (Sarah), Kaitlyn, Courtney (Zac), and Evan (Kaitlyn); and his cherished great-grandchildren, Alaina and Grayson.

Frank will be remembered for his warm smile, quick wit, and devotion to family. He was a man who led with love and lived with gratitude, leaving behind a legacy of family and friendship.

His presence will be deeply missed, but his memory will continue to inspire all who knew and loved him.

There will be a casual Celebration of Life on Saturday, November 8, 2025, from 1:00-4:00 PM at the home of Chris Sogga.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Hospice of Acadiana- Calcutta House. https://hospiceacadiana.com/hoa/donate (Calcutta House).
