Frank Thomas Desta, 69, of Huntsville AL was born Sept 25, 1948 and passed away surrounded by his family after a hard fought battle with cancer on Sept 27, 2017.

Testi and Vernita J. Kyle Testi, as well as his sister Vernita J. Testi-Kosiorek.
Frank enlisted and served as a communications specialist in the US Navy from 1969 – 1974. He was stationed in the Mediterranean on an aircraft carrier. He was honorably discharged after serving his country and went on to the next chapter in his life which was his family.
Frank lived his life selflessly and brought nothing but his best to the table. He was a very loving and caring husband, father, and brother. There was nothing he wouldn’t do for his loved ones. His humor and wisdom will never be forgotten by those who were fortunate enough to know him. We wish you could’ve stayed with us but it’s clear God needed you there.
