It is with saddened hearts that we announce the passing of Frank Edward Campo Sr., on January 12, 2024, at the age of 77.

Frank was born in Jacksonville, North Carolina on August 27, 1946, the son of the late Francis Edward Campo and Olga Marie Campo, who instilled in him the values of kindness, love of family, and a strong work ethic. On December 27, 1969, Frank embarked on a lifelong journey of love and commitment when he married his soulmate, Linda Herrington Campo. Together, they created a beautiful family and shared countless treasured memories.

During his time in the Marines, Frank served in Japan, where he honed his skills and demonstrated his dedication to his country. His adventurous spirit led him to travel extensively throughout his lifetime, making numerous cherished memories.

He had a passion for spending time with his family and lifelong buddies, playing all sorts of card, board and computer games. His love of cars was evident in his ownership of four Alfa Romeos, which he enjoyed cruising around with the top down.

Frank devoted 12 years to working with the Department of Family and Childrens Services. He was also an accomplished entrepreneur, owning and operating multiple businesses throughout his life.

Faith was an integral part of Frank's life, as he was a devoted member of the Transfiguration Catholic Church and their charismatic prayer group. He found solace and strength within the walls of the church, nourishing his soul and connecting with others who shared his devotion. His love for the Lord will carry on through many generations.

Frank is survived by his loving wife, Linda, who stood by his side through thick and thin, sharing an unbreakable bond. He is also survived by his children; Lorraine (Ron) Hartwig, Woodstock, GA, Frank (Tisha) Campo Jr., Acworth, GA, John (Lori) Campo, Woodstock, GA, Rachel (Jesse) Rollins, Acworth, GA, sister; Janis (Marty) Engelstein, Albany, NY, brother; Philip (Dawn) Campo, Hamburg, NJ; as well as 11 grandchildren, 5 great-grandchildren, and many other cherished family and friends.
