Frank Amos Arsenault passed into the next life, beginning the new year in a way that was, frankly, very on-brand for him: memorable, impactful, completely on his terms and not a second before he was ready to.
Born on March 23,1962 to Norman and Ruth Ann (Philbrick), the youngest of three, there was no shortage of trouble and fun. He is survived by his two sisters Lori Palm and Cheri Daley. An original Weare boy, growing up on Maplewold road, Frank could be found with the likes of Jim Laura and Mike Whitmore living life full-bore and without reservation.
Frank is predeceased by Carolyn (Andrews) Arsenault whom he loved deeply and no doubt missed more than he ever admitted. The love for the mother of his children and the years she dedicated to him, never forgotten.
They were married in 1987 at the farmhouse on Mt. Dearborn Rd and had two children, Franklin Adam and Jacklyn Marie. Life was spent working hard accumulating innumerable licenses over his years, gathering awards, accolades, friends and a community unlike any other.
The last 17 years of his life were spent with Priscilla Gladu, making happiness, attending concerts, golfing, quiet nights on their farm in Deering and making memories. They shared life, laughter, loyalty and many chapters together.
Frank leaves behind Priscilla Gladu, his son Franklin Adam, his fiancé Mary and their children Avery & Mackenzie and his daughter Jacklyn Marie, her husband Edward and their children Alexia and Odyn.
His grandchildren brought him the greatest joy and brought him endless pride. Being of Frank's lineage did not seem to matter to him. In addition, Frank leaves many others whom he “adopted” as family over the years, because biology was never the only requirement to be loved, included, or claimed by him.
A Celebration of Life is being planned for the Summer of 2026, on his beloved farm.
