Date of Death: Tuesday, January 21, 2025
It is with immense pain that we share the passing of our beloved Frank J. Merriam, who left us suddenly on January 21, 2025, surrounded by his loving family.
Frank was the devoted husband of Karin, his wife of 17 years, and the immensely proud father of Olivia and Helina, who were the center of his universe. Frank brought light and laughter to all who knew him through his distinctive wit and remarkable sense of humor. He was a beautiful soul who approached life with both intellectual curiosity and playful enthusiasm, finding joy in technology, gaming, and spirited conversations with friends and family.
Those who knew Frank will remember him for his boundless love for his family, his warm presence, and the special way he could light up any room with his personality. His greatest joy was being present for his daughters, and his love for them was infinite and unwavering.
Frank’s legacy of love, laughter, and devotion lives on through his wife Karin; daughters Olivia and Helina; mother Cila; sister Lori; and many loving family members and friends.

One of the funniest and kindest persons I have had the pleasure be friends with. His love and devotion to his family were unmatched. I’m heartbroken he has passed, but I’m glad I will always have great memories of the time I spent with him.
Some people make you feel important and that they are happy to see you and are interested in you. Frank was just like that and the world needs more people like Frank. I will miss him very much. Eternal rest.
I reconnected with Frank, some years back, on Facebook after getting to know him in high school. He was still the smart, funny and caring person he was a a teenager. A true gem!
