Frank J.
Fabiny
Oct 29, 1919 — Feb 11, 2022
Frank J Fabiny, 102, passed away peacefully on February 11, 2022 in Roebuck, South Carolina at the home that he and his wife Agatha made with their daughter Barbara and her family. He was born October 29, 1919 to the late John and Maria (Polak) Fabiny in Campbell, Ohio and married Agatha Hamrock on October 4, 1952.
Frank served in the U.S. Army during WWII in the Asiatic-Pacific Theater. He worked at Republic Steel for 42 years as a Transportation Foreman until his retirement in 1982. He was a member of St. Paul the Apostle Church in Spartanburg , SC and Our Lady of Sorrows Parish, St. Matthias Church, in Youngstown, where he had served as an usher, a volunteer for the Holy Name Society and other church-based groups, and at the St. Vincent DePaul Soup Kitchen. Frank was an avid golfer, gardener, and a crafty card player. His unique sense of humor, sharp wit and interest in all sports made him a pleasure to be near. Frank delighted in his grandchildren, any and all visitors, and really enjoyed being outdoors soaking up the southern sun.
He is survived by his wife of 69 years, Agatha Hamrock Fabiny; sons Raymond of Akron, OH and Thomas (Lisbeth) of Flowery Branch, GA; and daughters Barbara (Drew) Monitto of Roebuck, SC and Marian (John) McCreery of Timnath, CO. He also leaves behind a niece, Ann Marie (Carmen) Carcelli of Canfield, nephew Jerry (Maryann) Jurcisin of Lowellville; 14 grandchildren, seven great grandchildren, and goddaughter Karen Gavalier of Naples, FL.
In addition to his parents, he is preceded in death by brothers Joseph and Michael Fabiny, a sister Anna Yurcisin, daughter Virginia DeLuca, and grandson Jared Fabiny.
