Frankie Jean Scalzo, age 68, of Spicer, passed away unexpectedly on Saturday, March 14, at her residence.
Born on September 18, 1957, in Minneapolis, Minnesota, Frankie was the daughter of Frank and Billie (Wegner) Scalzo. She grew up in the New London-Spicer community and graduated from New London-Spicer High School in 1976. She went on to earn a BA in Education from Bemidji State University and later returned to complete her Master’s degree in Education.
Frankie dedicated her career to teaching elementary school and coaching girls basketball and softball, first in the Kimball and Chokio-Alberta school districts and then for the remainder of her years in the Clearbrook School District. She retired from teaching in 2016 and returned to the Spicer area, where she enjoyed spending time outdoors and volunteering with the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources’ annual Loon Counting Program.
She is survived by her brothers, Joel (and Ann) Scalzo of Plymouth and Rick Scalzo of Spicer, along with many nieces, nephews, and friends. She was preceded in death by her parents.
