Frank E. Hilton III, age 53, passed away peacefully on Monday, April 13, 2026. He was born in Weymouth, Massachusetts to Frank and Cathleen (Sweeney) Hilton.

Frank was a beloved husband, father, brother, and friend, whose life was marked by laughter, faith, and a deep love for others.

Frank was known for his lighthearted spirit and quick sense of humor. He had a special way of bringing joy into any room. Whether through a joke, a smile, or a simple conversation, he left a lasting impression on everyone he met.

One of Frank’s greatest passions was football. He loved being on the sidelines, coaching and mentoring young athletes. To many, he was more than a coach—he was an encourager, a role model and someone who truly cared about the lives he impacted both on and off the field.

Frank was employed by Peachtree Pest Control, where he formed many special friendships and was valued not only for his work, but for the kindness and positivity he brought to his colleagues each day.

Above all, Frank was a man of strong Christian faith. He believed deeply in the power of prayer and carried that into every part of his life. No matter the circumstance, Frank prayed about everything, trusting God fully and encouraging others to do the same.

Frank loved his family deeply, and if you ever met him, you knew this. His devotion to those he loved was evident in the way he spoke and lived.

Frank is survived by his wife, Rana Hilton; his daughters, Cheyenne Hilton and Ainsley Hilton; his son, Quincy Hilton; his bonus children, McKinley Hunter, Keynon Hunter and Alexxis Gates (Dyron); and his cherished bonus grandchildren, Kylen, Kayde, Kru, and Karsyn. Frank and Rana blended their families 15 years ago, and he loved all the children as his own.

He is also survived by his siblings, Deborah Johar (Indy) and Richard Hilton; along with several cousins, nieces and nephews who will forever cherish his memory.

Frank was preceded in death by his parents, Kathleen Sweeney and Frank E. Hilton Jr. and his brother, Michael Hilton.

Frank’s legacy is one of love, faith, laughter, and encouragement. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him, but his impact will live on in the countless lives he touched.

Though our hearts are broken, we find comfort in knowing he is at peace in the presence of the Lord.

The family will be planning a Celebration of Life service for May 2, 2026 at The Church at Warhill – Canton. Time TBD.

Care of Frank has been entrusted to In Their Honor Funeral and Cremation Providers.
