Frank M. Delgado

December 18, 1928 ~ October 30, 2019

Frank Delgado, 90, passed away peacefully on October 30, 2019.  He was born December 18, 1928 to Jesus and Engracia Delgado. He married his sweetheart, Helen Margaret Lenzi, on October 30, 1953.  Frank worked for Southern Pacific Railroad for 44 years.

He was a very hard worker and stayed in amazing shape. He enjoyed riding his bike around the neighborhood and loved working in his yard. He was devoted to his wife and kids. Frank was always “dressed to the nines!”

Frank was a cornerstone for the upkeep of St. Joseph Catholic Church for decades. He was the lead usher for many years. If there was any question about the church, its contents, or where something was located, Frank was the go-to person. He administered at funerals for many years and was at church on Fridays volunteering his time to the Lord, as he put it. Frank was a dedicated Knights of Columbus member for many years.

Frank is survived by his wife, Helen; two sons Frank Jr. (Glaunda) and Rick; sisters Avelina Avilas, Antonia Grimaldo and Grace Prieto; brothers Ralph and Joe; two grandchildren and six great-grandchildren.

He was preceded in death by his mom and dad; sisters Aurora McCubbin, Esther Hernandez and Julia Fraga; and brother Phil.

A funeral Mass was celebrated November 6 at St. Joseph Catholic Church. Interment at Memorial Gardens of the Wasatch.
