Frank was a beloved husband of Mildred Nerli, loving father, grandfather and great grandfather to 5 children, 9 grandchildren and 10 great grandchildren.
Frank was a true part of the Half Moon Bay history. Born in Lobitos, Ca and raised in Half Moon Bay, he started his working life as a farmer on the coast working the land across from what is now the Half Moon Bay Airport. He then worked as a bartender in the family restaurant called “Nerli’s Place” while performing a little bootlegging on the side. He eventually started his own family and became the owner of “The Hideaway” bar and restaurant in Redwood City. He retired at the age of 78.
