Obituary for Frank Isolani Frank Isolani passed away on Saturday, August 25, 2018 at the age of 81 in Covington, Louisiana after a courageous battle with cancer. His strength, determination, and courage have been an inspiration to all who knew him. Frank was born on January ¬¬7, 1937 in Rutigliano, Italy, son of the late Paolina Amodio and Paolo Isolani. He came to America at the age of 20 to pursue the American dream, arriving in New Orleans with nothing but courage and determination. Soon after arriving, he met his beloved wife Ena Maria Marcia Isolani, with whom he celebrated 58 wonderful years of marriage. Through hard work, dedication, and devotion, Frank pursued his dreams and used his immense talent to carve out a successful career in the clothing business, eventually retiring as Vice President of Design at Hardwick Clothes in Cleveland, Tennessee. Frank is survived by his loving wife, Ena; his loving children Ninetta (Hoyt), Rodney (Laura), Alex (Dora), Danny, and Ena (Johnny). He will be greatly missed by his grandchildren, David, Eric, Nick, Megan, Lucas, Jonathan and Jacob. Frank is also survived by his brother Mario Isolani in Verona, Italy; his 6 sisters, Grazia Lucia, Maria, Ada, Lucia, Nicoletta and Paolina of Padova Italy and many cousins, nieces and nephews. Although an ocean apart, Frank remained close with his family, and the legacy of his life will forever be etched in the hearts of those who knew him. Frank loved projects and could most often be found in the garage working on his latest creation. He was a talented tailor, carpenter, mechanic, electrician and handyman who could do just about anything. He was a loving and devoted husband, father, grandfather, brother, and friend. He enjoyed helping others and spending time with his family. He was a devout Catholic and a member of St. Therese of Lisieux Catholic Church in Cleveland, Tennessee.
