Frank Casciaro Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Washburn-McReavy Funeral Chapels - Edina on Nov. 3, 2025.

Publish in a newspaper

Frank Casciaro Jr. of Edina, MN, born February 26, 1931 in Kenosha, WI, left this earth on October 27, 2025.
Preceding him were his parents, Millie Gallo and Frank Casciaro Sr. and his wife Barbara Lynn Burns.
He met Barbara while in Minneapolis attending Railroad School, while she was attending the University of Minnesota. They were married 6 months later. Together they raised five daughters.
He served in the Air Force, worked for the Railroad, and spent 25 years in commercial coffee sales. Frank enjoyed playing golf, shooting pool, daily walks and his family. He was defined by his Italian heritage and cherished his many cousins and friends from Kenosha. People were a passion for Frank; his kindness to our friends, his interest in his customers, his curiosity with his many acquaintances. We thank you for embracing his genuine purpose.
Frank's legacy is the family he created.
Daughters: Lesli Rauch (Bob), Lisa Jahnke (Rich), Stacy Wood (Mike), Jaimi Anderson and Tris Casciaro.
10 Grandchildren: Steven Casciaro, Christine Loving (Scott) and Jess Bloom (Elliot), Brendon, Mackenzie and Zach Rauch, Sam Jahnke (Sydney) and Jack Jahnke, Shelby and Riley Anderson
7 Great Grandchildren: Harriet, Georgiana, Palmer, Penny, Thea, Harper and Teddy
A special thank you to New Perspectives in Waconia, Ridgeview Hospital in Waconia and the Ridgeview Hospice team. You treated him with grace and dignity and allowed him freedom.
A celebration of life for Frank will be Sunday, November 23. Visitation at 10:00AM and Service at 11:00AM followed by a reception at Washburn McReavy in Edina. Private Interment at Ft. Snelling National Cemetery.
Honor Frank by celebrating Thanksgiving with gratitude for family.
If you wish, donations can be made to Meals on Wheels or Second Harvest Heartland.
