Frank was a proud alumnus of Arroyo Grande High School, where he forged lifelong friendships and laid the foundation for a fulfilling life. It was during his high school years that he met the love of his life, Rosemary Willing, in 1953. The couple shared a deep connection that blossomed into a beautiful union, and they were married on May 2, 1954, in Shell Beach, California.

Throughout his life, Frank was a dedicated craftsman and electrician. His strong work ethic and commitment to providing for his family were evident in every aspect of his career. Frank's skilled hands and unwavering determination left a lasting impact on those who had the privilege of working alongside him.

Beyond his professional pursuits, Frank was known for his love of bowling and was recognized as a fantastic bowler in his community. His passion for dancing brought joy to countless social gatherings, leaving cherished memories for all who shared the dance floor with him.

Frank was also an active and cherished member of the community, dedicating much of his time to the Pismo Beach Moose Lodge and the Oceano Elks Lodge. He was not just a member; he also played an integral role in these organizations, holding various offices and contributing significantly to their success. Frank lent his hand to the cook crew over the years, becoming a fixture at events and gatherings. His culinary skills, coupled with a warm and welcoming demeanor, made him an invaluable asset to the lodge’s gatherings, enhancing the sense of community among its members.

In April 2000, Frank and Rosemary embraced a new chapter of their lives as they made Pahrump, Nevada their home. Here, Frank discovered a love for the vibrant casino scene, where he enjoyed the thrill of gaming and the camaraderie that came with it. His infectious laughter and bright smile made him a beloved figure at the gaming tables, and you could often find him drinking his signature martini at the bar.  Frank's community involvement extended to the Pahrump Moose Lodge, where he actively participated in various activities and events. He was also a member of the local VFW and American Legion. His commitment to his country never wavered over the years.

Frank Molette will be remembered not only for his contributions to his profession but also for the warmth and kindness he brought to the lives of those around him. He leaves behind a legacy of love, hard work, and a zest for life that will be carried on by his family and friends.

As Frank Molette’s earthly journey comes to an end, his spirit lives on in the hearts of his children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. He is survived by his children, John Molette, Rhonda Tigue (Patrick), Rodney Molette, and Martin Molette. He is preceded in death by his wife of 70 years, Rosemary A Molette (Willing), just three weeks prior to his own passing.  They are united once again.  Frank's memory will live on in the hearts of those who knew him.
