Francis E. (Frank) Foley, age 89 of Fairfield, Ohio, passed away at home on December 20, 2025. Born in Hamilton, Ohio on September 21, 1936 to the late Harold J. and Caroline M. (Mergy) Foley. Frank was educated at St. Veronica grade school and in 1954 graduated from Hamilton Catholic High School.  In 1958 Frank married Joan Morningstar in St. Ann Church, Hamilton, Ohio. They were able to enjoy 67 years together and six children were born to their union. Frank was employed at his father's radio, TV and electronics family business for over 52 years, working his way up to president and eventually retired in 2004. Several months after retirement, Frank still had plenty of energy in his tank, taking a courier position with First Financial Bank, where he worked another 19 years before retiring in 2024 at the age of 88.
For many years Frank played bass (tuba and guitar) with various German bands throughout the Greater Cincinnati area. He always looked forward to playing a spirited game of cards. He will be greatly missed by his entire family, many friends and former co-workers.
