Frank Jasiel

Frank “Franciszek” Jasiel, 90, passed away June 30, 2015 at home surrounded by his loving family. Born in Poland, he was the son of the late Witold and Jozefa Jasiel. He immigrated to the United States and was an Indian Orchard resident for over 50 years. He was a faithful parishioner of Immaculate Conception Church.

A proud veteran of the Polish Army, he served for 8 years during World War II and was injured in the Battle of Monte Cassino.  Frank worked many years for Milton Bradley and American Saw until his retirement. He was devoted to his grandchildren and loved to garden, take trips to Hampton Beach, go for country rides and go fishing.

Besides his parents, he was predeceased by his brothers and sisters. He leaves behind his beloved wife of 54 years Zofia (Warunek) Jasiel; son Richard Jasiel; son John Jasiel and his wife Alicja; grandchildren Joshua, Brendon, Michelle and Nicholas Jasiel; as well as many nephews and nieces in Poland.
