Frank Vincent Annarino III, age 48, of Granville, passed away Thursday, August 22, 2024. He was born in Lakewood, Ohio on September 17, 1975, to Frank and Sandra (Robinson) Annarino, Jr.

Frank was a living testimony to his love for the Lord, and taught us all how to live a full life knowing time on earth is only a step towards the true destination of Heaven. He was an amazing and proud dad who will always love Harper and Frankie unconditionally, a supportive husband to Beth who will unfailingly feel his protection, a wonderful son who happily considered himself a "mama's boy", a loyal brother, a special nephew, a thoughtful uncle, a kind cousin, and an honest friend to so many.

Aside from family and friends, Frank's passion and purpose in life were found in his nursing career where he gave endlessly to others, always serving with 100% compassion whether with patients at the hospitals he worked at or with friends who needed help. Stories of him and his coworkers brought him laughter and some of his greatest memories. He could talk "medical shop" for hours and would to anyone who would listen.

He considered both Ohio and Illinois his home. He could often be found cheering on the Buckeyes and the Chicago Bears with his family, hunting with his dog Norman, fishing, all things outdoors, talking sports with his Dad, fixing anything that needed his handyman skills, and his favorite thing of all, cheering on his kids during basketball games.

In addition to his parents, Frank is survived by his loving wife of 22 years, Beth (Broyles) Annarino; children, Harper Bree Annarino and Frankie Vincent Annarino IV; brother, Ray (Jessica) Annarino; sisters, Andrea (Vern) Shaw and Shannon Boyette; uncles, Phil (Kathy), Dave (Christy); aunts Vicki, Bev, and Lorraine; brother-in-law, Ben (Anissa) Broyles; mother and father-in-law, Carolyn and Dale Broyles; several nieces, nephews, cousins; his furry companions Norman and George.

Lastly, if you are reading this, Frank would want you to know that he lived a thousand lifetimes in his one. He would also want not his passing but his entire life to serve as a reminder to live as he did - to love your family and friends hard, to laugh even on the tough days, to not be afraid of change, to forgive even when it feels impossible, to take vacations even when money is tight, and to never lose sight of God for with Him you are never alone.

Frank passes into Heaven with peace. He shared that he plans to continue to do God's work and to look after his family. He will be saving them a place for when they see each other again.
