Anne Marie Frisina

Anne Marie Frisina, née Capper, peacefully passed away on June 9, 2026, in Aurora, Colorado. Born on September 18, 1935, in Staten Island, New York, Anne's life was a heartfelt journey marked by devotion, resilience, and unwavering love for her family and faith.

A graduate of St. Peter's High School in Staten Island in 1953, Anne pursued further education at St. Peter's College in New Jersey, laying a foundation that would support her multifaceted career and personal endeavors. She initially held various administrative assistant and secretarial roles, proving herself a capable and dedicated professional. However, her path took a defining turn when she joined her late husband, Joseph Frisina, in creating and nurturing a family business, Assets, Inc. Together, they represented food chemists and sold specialized ingredients and aromatics to commercial food manufacturers and major food conglomerates. Following Joseph’s passing in 2000, Anne carried on the legacy with grace and tenacity, steering the company forward with the same devotion that characterized their partnership.

Anne’s spiritual life was as profound. A devout Catholic, she was an active fixture in her church community, regularly playing the piano and singing in the choir, teaching CCD classes, and participating earnestly in Bible study groups. Her faith was a guiding light, inspiring those around her with her kindness, warmth, and unwavering commitment to her beliefs.

Anne's legacy is embraced tenderly by those who knew and loved her. She is survived by her beloved son, Gregory Frisina, whose presence brought immeasurable joy and pride into her life, and her dear sister, Joan C. Capper. The memory of her late husband Joseph Frisina, whom she married on August 5, 1972, remains a cherished part of her story. Anne also leaves behind the enduring memory of her parents, Edward J. Capper and Elizabeth L. Capper, and siblings Elizabeth M. Eccleston, Edward J. Capper, Mary T. Nickerson, Francis J. Capper, and John B. Capper.

Anne's life will be honored with services beginning at Queen of Peace Catholic Church in Aurora, Colorado, on June 22, 2026, at 10:00 a.m., followed by burial at Saint Simeon Catholic Cemetery. 

Anne Marie Frisina’s story is one of steadfast dedication—to her family, her faith, and her work—and her memory remains a gentle beacon of love and grace for all who had the honor of knowing her.
