In memory of ​Frank Pestello

Picture
Frank Nicholas Pestello passed away peacefully at home in Longmont, Colorado on March 28, 2024.  Frank was 57 years old. He was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota and had the opportunity to live in many places around the country which included:  Dallas, Albuquerque, LA, Las Vegas, and the Boulder/Longmont areas of Colorado.  He graduated from high school in St. Cloud, Minnesota.  Frank received his degree from the Dallas Institute of Art in the disciplines of Music and Video Business. He was employed as an Account Representative at Vail Associates and also at Celebrity Access. 

He is survived by his parents Gary and Lindy Pestello and Nancy Pestello, Sarah & Scott Middelstadt (sister), Tony & Kelly Pestello (brother), six nieces and nephews, five great nieces and nephews, a very large extended family and a multitude of friends.

Frank was a very loving, compassionate and talented man, who will be dearly missed and will live in the hearts of those who knew and loved him.

We are honored that Frank's charity of choice was Sweet Relief Musicians Fund, benefiting musicians and music industry workers in the Rocky Mountain Front Range. You can make a donation to honor Frank’s memory below.
