March 30, 1960 – February 19, 2024
Francisco Lewis Capuano, 63, of Clayton, NC, peacefully passed away at his home on Monday, February 19, 2024, surrounded by his beloved family.
Born on March 30, 1960, in Allentown, Pennsylvania to the late Anthony Michael Capuano and Rita Domenica (Alloggio) Capuano. He was one of five children.
Frank lost his courageous three-year battle with Glioblastoma but always remained strong in his faith with God. He always trusted and was at peace with Gods plan. He never struggled to count Gods many blessings.

He was preceded in death by his parents and his brother Michael Anthony Capuano.
The family will receive friends for Francisco Capuano’s Life celebration on Monday, February 26th, 2024, from 10 a.m. till 11:30 a.m. with Funeral Services at 11:30 a.m., officiated by Pastor Rick Hancock at Southern Calvert Baptist Church 12140 H.G Trueman Road, Lusby, Maryland,20657.

Frank was one of a kind. He was tough as nails and fearless but at the same time very gentle, caring, and had a terrific sense of humor. Once you earned his respect nothing could break that bond. He was very honest and forthright and would offer very sound advice and gave you his candid opinion. That is what made him so special to me and his loved ones. He would literally go through a wall for you if he could. God is getting a good soul. Love you so much Frank. Uncle Mike.
