July 13, 1949 - February 2, 2026
With heavy hearts, we share that Frank Michael Cappalla passed away on Monday February 2, 2026 at the age of 76.
Frank was known for his kindness, humor, loving and quiet demeanor, generosity, quick wit, and soft warm smile. Above all, Frank loved his family very much and was very proud of his children, grandchildren, and great-granddaughter. Frank was a devoted firefighter who spent his 25 year career working at Tracy Rural Fire Department, and was especially fond of cases where he was able to help children in need, a reflection of his compassionate heart. He brought love and laughter to everyone who knew him and will be deeply missed.
Frank leaves behind his loving wife of 58 years Joan Cappalla, his two sons Kenneth and Dennis Cappalla, grandchildren Joseph (Orchid), Gina, Vincent, Kristen, great-granddaughter Audrey, and sister-in-law Beth Agnason, along with many friends whose lives were better for having known him.
