Frank Charles Stochl

Frank Charles Stochl, a dedicated family man and a beacon of joy, departed this world on May 10, 2025, at his home in St. Peters, Missouri, surrounded by his loving family. He was born on July 24, 1945, and lived a life marked by laughter, generosity, and an unwavering spirit.

Frank’s warmth and humor were unmatched. He was known for his hilarious personality and his infectious smile, and those who knew him will forever cherish the sound of his laughter. He took immense pride in celebrating the accomplishments of his loved ones, often bragging with joy about his grandchildren, who brought him endless happiness and pride.

He was a devoted husband to his beloved wife, June Stochl, with whom he shared an enduring marriage of 61 years. Frank's dedication to his family extended to his sons, Michael (Linda) Stochl, Kenneth (Amanda) Stochl, and Timothy (Kristy Forcucci) Stochl. Together, they formed a tight-knit family that served as the foundation of his life.

As a grandfather, Frank's love knew no bounds. He found immense joy in playing with his grandchildren: Michael (Sophia) Stochl, Nataliah Stochl, Zoee Stochl, Alexander Stochl, Christopher Stochl, Thomas Stochl, Jacob Stochl, and Julia Stochl. His legacy continues with his great-grandchildren, Grayson Stochl, Jose "JT" Stochl, Bodhi Stochl, and Noah Stochl, all of whom were fortunate to know the loving spirit of their Great-Grandpa.

Frank's interests and hobbies reflected his vibrant personality. He loved the outdoors, spending countless hours in his garden, nurturing both his flowers and his love for nature. He was an avid fan of the St. Louis Cardinals and cherished watching boxing matches. However, perhaps one of his most endearing passions was his love for birds; he delighted in feeding them and would always go out of his way to buy the finest birdseed, ensuring his feathered friends were well taken care of.

Frank's compassionate nature extended beyond his family. He was known to give generously, engaging in charitable donations and making a positive impact in his community. His kindness was exemplified by the stacks of mail he received from various charities, each letter read thoughtfully as a reflection of his generous heart.

He is survived by his loving family, who will hold onto the cherished memories of Frank, from his uproarious jokes to his thoughtful guidance. They find solace in the knowledge that he now rests with his loving parents, Joseph and Clara Stochl, his brother, Joseph Stochl, and his sister, Clara Busby, who welcomed him into a peaceful embrace.
