Frank Joseph Moroz

June 23, 1933 – November 2026

Frank Joseph Moroz, born June 23, 1933, in Ashland, Pennsylvania, was the son of the late Frank E. Moroz and Helen Blanche Wiziemirska Moroz.

Raised in Philadelphia, Frank remained a devoted Philadelphia Eagles fan throughout his life. One of his most treasured memories came when his granddaughter arranged for him and his son to attend an Eagles game, complete with special field passes. It was an unforgettable experience for a lifelong fan and a memory his family will always cherish.

Frank was a proud veteran of the United States Army, having honorably served his country, including two years of active duty during the Korean War.

Frank was a man of extraordinary talent, creativity, and attention to detail. A gifted artisan, he specialized in crafting custom dollhouses and miniature furniture. His work was truly remarkable, often recreating cherished family homes from nothing more than photographs. Whether it was a childhood home or a house filled with generations of memories, Frank had a unique ability to bring those memories to life in miniature, capturing even the smallest details with incredible precision. Alongside his business partner, he owned and operated what became the second-largest miniature show in the country, a tradition that continues in Pennsylvania today. His craftsmanship was more than a profession; it was a passion that brought joy to countless people.

Beyond his artistic talents, Frank will be remembered for his wonderful sense of humor and his ability to make those around him laugh.

Frank shared 43 years of marriage with his first wife, Rosemary, the mother of his children, until her passing. Together, they built a life and raised a family that remained an important part of Frank's life. Later, Frank was fortunate to find love again with Anita, and the two enjoyed 25 wonderful years together, filled with love, companionship, travel, and laughter. Anita often shared that one of Frank's greatest gifts was his wonderful sense of humor and his ability to keep her laughing throughout their years together.

Affectionately known as "Poppy" to his grandchildren, Frank took great pride in his family and the many generations who loved him.

He is survived by his loving wife, Anita Weiss Moroz; his children, Fran Moroz and his wife, Nancy, Kathleen Cole and her husband, Mike, Michael Moroz and his wife, Pat, and Joanne Moroz; his grandchildren, Kristin, Katie, Matt, Michael, Lauren, Brian, Jennifer, and Brittany; and nine great-grandchildren. Along with his parents he was preceded in death by his first wife, and his granddaughter, Jessica.

Frank's extended family through Anita includes Fred Weiss and his wife, Cindy, Ned Weiss, and Cherall Weiss; grandchildren Saul, David, Marilyn, Aliza, and Natalie; and eight additional great-grandchildren.

Frank leaves behind a legacy of beautiful craftsmanship, treasured family memories, and, perhaps most importantly, the laughter and love he so freely shared. His remarkable ability to create something meaningful with his hands was matched only by his ability to bring happiness to those around him. He will be deeply missed and fondly remembered by all who had the pleasure of knowing him.

A service celebrating Frank's life will be held at a later date in Pennsylvania.
