With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Frank Minnella, a devoted husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, entrepreneur, and friend. Frank passed away on March 26, 2025, leaving behind a legacy of love, hard work, and unwavering dedication to his family and businesses.

Frank is survived by his beloved wife, Betty Minnella, his brothers Thomas and John, and his five cherished children: Michelle Glickman, Karina Montes, Watson Visuwan, Lindsay Case, and Miranda Ramsay. He was a proud grandfather of 14 and a great-grandfather to one, each of whom brought him endless joy and pride.

A visionary businessman, Frank co-founded Lock America in 1981 and played a pivotal role in the growth of multiple successful ventures throughout his life. His entrepreneurial spirit, determination, and leadership left an indelible mark on the industries he touched.

Beyond his professional accomplishments, Frank found his greatest joy in spending time with his family, traveling the world, and immersing himself in his work—which was not just a career, but a passion. His stories were always an adventure—filled with humor, bold characters, and a spark of mischief that kept everyone leaning in for more. Whether retelling moments from his life or spinning a tale to make someone smile, Frank had a gift for bringing people together through his words.

He will be remembered for his generosity, wisdom, quick wit, and the strong values he instilled in those around him.

A Celebration of Life will be held on April 19, 2025, from 8:30 AM to 12:00 PM, with a service to follow. Family, friends, and loved ones are welcome to join in honoring and remembering Frank's remarkable life.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly asks that donations be made in Frank's honor to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, a cause close to the family's heart.

Rest in peace, Frank. Your impact on this world will be felt for generations to come.
