Frank Mario Albano

Frank Mario Albano went to sing with the angels in Heaven Tuesday, March 30, 2021.

Husband to Nomi, father of Deanna (Tony) Albano, Alissa (Parker) Albano, Jill (Brandon) Lee, Lee (Morgan) Fox, and “Pop Pop” to Brookelynn and Sawyer Fox and Jackson Lee.

Frank was an Italian from New York City who moved to Lynden, Washington to grow his family and advance his career. His legacy as an Executive with Alpha Technologies laid the foundation for his connection to the community.

Frank was larger than life. He was generous, compassionate, thoughtful, caring, kind, and a friend to all. Frank would give you the shirt off his back or the cannoli off his plate. He treated everyone as if they were an old friend, no matter who they were. Frank loved his family, his friends, his faith, and his community with everything that he had. He was always available with encouraging words, invitations to dinner, a helping hand or welcomed advice. He never turned away anyone in need, and he could always be counted on to show up when he said he would. Frank was a special man who mentored many and touched countless lives. He lived his life to the fullest. To quote him directly, “Live life, don’t take yourself so seriously, enjoy every moment and never look back.”

He was known for his plentiful and delicious Italian cooking, and especially for his crooning voice.  He was the life of every party.  Frank filled every room with his big heart and bright energy. He was everything to his family and one of the world’s greatest.

The world was his stage, with a Cuban cigar in one hand and a shot of B&B in the other.

Frank lived his life HIS WAY… and has taken his final bow.
