Frank Charles Galluzzo

Frank Charles Galluzzo, born March 11, 1942, passed away peacefully at home on June 3, 2026, surrounded by the love of his family.

Frank was a devoted husband, loving father, proud grandfather, and cherished friend whose kindness, strength, humor, and generosity touched all who knew him. He loved traveling with family and friends, lighting up every city he visited and every room he entered. He embraced life fully and had a gift for making people feel welcome wherever he went.

Frank shared 62 wonderful years of marriage with his beloved wife, Pat, whose partnership, companionship, and unwavering love became the foundation of their family. Together, they built a home filled with faith, laughter, stories around the table, and countless meals shared with those they loved most.

He was the proud father of four daughters: Gina Galluzzo, Lisa Evans (Tommy), MaryBeth Hildahl (Matt), and Kara Azpiazu Galluzzo (Iker), and cherished Brady Sandahl as a son. Frank took great joy in watching his daughters grow, supporting them through every stage of life, and celebrating their accomplishments.

His greatest joy came from time spent with family — especially his nine grandchildren: Matty(Kirsten)Evans, Charlie Evans, David Evans, Peter Evans, Gabriella Galluzzo, Emma Mannhalt, Elle Hildahl, Ander Azpiazu Galluzzo, and Kate Azpiazu Galluzzo; and his great-granddaughter, Elizabeth Mannhalt. Whether through his guidance, humor, encouragement, or simply being present, Frank created a legacy that will live on through the countless lives he touched.

Although he is no longer physically with us, his humor, wisdom, faith, and spirit remain deeply woven into the lives of those fortunate enough to know him.

“Those we love don’t go away; they walk beside us every day.” The family invites relatives and friends to honor Frank’s life and celebrate the lasting impact he made on all who had the privilege of knowing him.

Services will be held at The Madeleine Parish in Portland, Oregon, on June 18, 2026. The Rosary will begin at 10:30 a.m., followed by a Funeral Mass at 11:00 a.m.
