Frank Wall

Frank Wall was born on February 11, 1919, to Aron and Katherine Wall in Canada. He left Canada at an early age and moved to the United States, where he pursued a career as a typewriter repairman for nineteen years. Additionally, he worked for a short period as a deliveryman for a jeweler in downtown Los Angeles, CA.

Frank was devoted to reading his Bible and accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as his personal savior at an early age. He had a passion for reading, drawing, playing checkers, bingo, painting, and was an excellent wood carver. Frank believed that the key to a long life was to love and be loved, and to treat everyone with respect. Though he was a man of few words, his lifestyle reflected honesty, humor, and a steadfast commitment to pointing people toward Jesus Christ.

His favorite pastime was chatting with his sister Helen and catching up on the latest news. Helen would send Frank his favorite booklets, "The Decision" magazine, "Our Daily Bread," and write letters of encouragement to her brother. He cherished his sister dearly and treasured the time they shared together.

Frank will be deeply missed by many, especially by his friend and caregiver, Yolanda, and her wonderful family. Yolanda's brother, Carl, would play the piano for Mr. Wall and the other residents where he lived, bringing them joy and inspiration. Jane, Yolanda's mother, enjoyed chatting with Mr. Wall and talking about the goodness of the Lord. Lilly, Jessica, and Christina, Yolanda's aunt and cousins, would call and check in on Mr. Wall, and he cherished their conversations. Frank always reminded Yolanda what a blessing she and her family were to him and appreciated the care they provided. Mr. Wall was always a great encourager through the life he lived, and he will be dearly missed.

A special thank you to the staff at Lomita Post-Acute Care Center in Lomita, CA, for caring for Mr. Wall and graciously contributing to his quality of life.

Mr. Wall lived to the remarkable age of one hundred and five years old, witnessing a great deal in his lifetime. He was blessed, highly favored, and enjoyed a great quality of life. He leaves us with a legacy of ensuring that everyone you meet feels loved and appreciated.

Frank is survived by his sister, Helen Wiebe; numerous nieces and nephews; and his dedicated caregiver and friend, Yolanda Gilliam, along with her family: Jane C. Hairston, Carl A. Hairston, Lilly Hopper, Jessica Merriweather, and Christina Thimbrel. He was preceded in death by his parents, his brother Peter Wall, and his sisters Tina Leoppky, Ann Loewen, and Mary Wall.
