Departed July 1, 2022 in Melbourne, Florida
Frank Joseph Genzianelli, born July 8th, 1944, passed peacefully at the age of 77 with his children by his side on July 1st, 2022. Frank was an Army veteran, Western Kentucky alum, and Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity brother. He was a beloved father, brother, uncle, and friend, as well as an adoring grandfather who especially loved doting on his grandchildren. He is survived by his son Anthony (Liz), his daughter Emily (Stephen), his grandchildren Bear and Laurel, his sister Rita, and his nieces and nephews, Michele, Michael, Steven, and Lisa. Frank will be remembered for his friendly and outgoing nature, for his kindness and willingness to help anyone he could, and above all else, for his notable generosity. Frank had the gift of gab and was a captivating storyteller, but he most enjoyed spending time with the family and friends he cherished. He will be remembered fondly and missed dearly.

I just found this. We are heartbroken. Frank worked with me at Ruby Red's Warehouse. A fine friend, a good man, and, yes, he had a gift to share with everyone. Godspeed. RIP.
I found out recently Frank of you passing. Now I know why you did not answer my calls/texts. You were a good man and I was glad to call you friend after we met 22 years ago. You were known for your generosity and big heart and hugs. We were from the same generation and had many similar storys to relate.
Uncle Frank,
I just heard of your passing and my heart is hurting.
I remember in the Inhouse trailer when you would come TO my tables…I would introduce you to my people, and you would grab the man by his arm, look at him in the eyes, and ask, “how do you know when a T/S salesperson is lying?”then look at me and say, “when his lips are moving.” You would them tell a story, somehow know the people the same people and get a deal.
And I’ll never forget the day you went to the ATM machine to get $20 for me because I didn’t have any money. You’re a wonderful man with a big heart and you will surely be missed. Love you, Ryan
Anthony & Emily,
Sending you lots of love during this time of loss, sadness and grief. Uncle Frank was an amazing person! I will always remember his generosity and his love. My favorite part of my house and where I spend many hours reading and watching deer in my yard is my 3-season porch furnished with wicker furniture from Uncle Frank. I think of him every time I’m out there!! I will miss hearing from him and sending him photos of NH.
With heartfelt condolences,
Michele

Frank,
It's hard to believe that I will never get to hear one of your epic stories again. I miss you so much already. But, your stories will definitely live on thru Anthony and Emily.
Thank you for being an amazing father and father in law. You will be in my heart and memories forever.
Love,
Liz ❤

We met at Vistana resort over 35 year’s ago and have been best friends over all those years . Frank was a great friend, coworker, business partner , and the best story teller we ever met ! He loved his kids and his grandkids with his whole heart ! We were lucky enough to have had him in our lives for as long as we did ! Rest In Peace ! The Mcgarigal Boys
