More Than a Memory: Frank Morelli’s Legacy at Work
On October 3rd 2020, Frank Morelli tragically passed away after a horrible car accident. Gone too soon, family and friends remember him as being a man of strong faith and character, who brought a smile to everyone he met. His warmth, jovial personality, and big heart brought a smile to everyone he met. He worked as a financial advisor at Merrill Lynch and was a committed supporter of St. Vincent de Paul.
In partnership with St. Vincent de Paul, Frank’s business partner and dear friend, Frank Migliazzo helped launch the Frank Morelli Legacy Fund to support the mission of sending economically disadvantaged youth to St. Vincent de Paul’s Camp Ozanam.
Carrying Frank’s Legacy Forward
Annually, friends, family and colleagues come together at the Great Oaks Country Club in Rochester Hills to honor Frank’s memory. It is a day of unity, remembrance, and joy that raises funds to continue support more young people in his name.
Supporting Young People in Frank’s Memory
In 2024, the Frank Morelli Legacy Fund expanded to support two causes.
- Camp Ozanam:
Helping children from economically disadvantaged families attend camp, build meaningful friendships, experience the outdoors, and connect with supportive mentors. - Catholic School Scholarships:
Providing tuition assistance for Catholic high school students who have experienced the loss of a parent, legal guardian, or sibling.
Frank Morelli was remembered for his warmth, joyful spirit, strong faith, and generous heart. He had a gift for bringing people together and making those around him feel welcomed and supported.
Today, his legacy lives on through every child who experiences the joy of Camp Ozanam, every student who is able to continue a Catholic education, and every person who comes together to support the fund established in his memory.
