Francisco Suarez Jr.

Beloved hubby, Dad, and Poppa, Frank, passed away August 18th, 2025 doing what he loved best...honoring our veterans. Born in Guam, he was excited to move to the main land. He became an aircraft mechanic in Washington state and eventually moved down to Southern California where he found employment at Aviation AirResearch / Garrett Aviation. Moving to Redondo Beach and then Hawthorne he met Nanette, his wife of 41 years. They lived happily with their two sons, Joseph and Timothy in Lakewood California. Happily gaining two daughter-in-laws and 4 grandchildren, whom he adored. He is well known in the community as "The jeep guy". He loved his1943 Willys Jeep and would frequent car shows and parades, and sometimes just driving around town for the joy of it. We are deeply grieved at his sudden passing but recognize and trust the Lord's hand not only in life but in death. The family is requesting donations to either Disabled American Veterans or Wounded Warrior in lieu of flowers. Please be sure to write a favorite memory you have of Frank! Thank you for your prayers.
