Obituary of Frank A. Candullo

Frank A. Candullo, 81, of Vista, NY passed away peacefully on November 23, 2021. He was surrounded by his loving family. Frank was born on May 1, 1940 in Brooklyn, NY to the late Salvatore and Nancy Candullo. He was predeceased by his brother Joseph. Frank was the beloved husband to the late Marie Candullo.

Frank is survived by his four sons and daughters-in-law: Salvatore Candullo of Saugerties, NY; Vincent and Naomi Candullo of Ridgefield, CT; Sebastian and Kristyn Candullo of Southbury, CT; and Alfred Candullo. Frank is also survived by his brother Anthony Candullo and his family.

Frank lived by his own motto “life is what you make it” and he encouraged his family to abide by this belief each day. Frank built his home in Vista, NY in 1970 where he lived and raised his family to present day. Frank was a hard working man, and he worked right up to his last days. Beginning in 1975, he created and started building family businesses with his brother Anthony.

Family was everything to Frank, especially his seven grandchildren: Siena, AJ, Adam, Nicco, Sebastian, Keiley, and Daniel. Holiday parties were looked forward to each year and Sunday pasta dinners at Frank’s home were a constant occasion. He loved cooking for his grandchildren and being surrounded by his family and friends.

A memorial gathering will be held on Saturday, December 18, 2021 to remember and celebrate Frank’s life from 12:00 pm to 4:00 p.m at Hoyt Funeral Home, 199 Main Street, New Canaan, CT 06840.
