Frank Reid Sneddon

Frank was born and raised in Calgary, AB. He lost his father at a young age and learned to navigate the world with some assistance from an uncle. Frank found his calling working in sales for various companies located in Alberta. He was very passionate about horse racing and enjoyed his extended trips to Hawaii. He spent many years living in Edmonton and St. Albert, AB. He married and in 1972 his first daughter, Ginny was born. In 1987 Frank was separated and moved to Saskatchewan to work in the home renovation business. In 1988, he met his future wife, Donna and together they began a relationship that would last 36 ½ years. He became a father figure to Donna’s daughter Glory. Frank and Donna married in 1992 and their children Reid (1995). J.D. (1997), and Ciara (1999) were born. In 1993 they started their own home renovation company which operated successfully for 17 ½ years until Frank’s heart and stroke issues prevented him from continuing to work in sales and management. He took on a new role as a stay-at-home dad and was very supportive of Reid and Ciara in their formative years. Over the years, Frank would step into the parental role with his nieces and nephews when needed. He spent many hours at the family cabin relaxing, fishing, and teaching the children how to stay on a tube while he was driving the boat. In 2019 Frank’s health took a turn for the worse and he moved to Oliver Lodge on February 26, 2020. He resided there until his passing.

Frank was predeceased by his parents, brother and sister-in-law, and baby son, J.D. Sneddon. He was also predeceased by Donna’s parents, Lester and Alois Engebretson, grandmother, Sophie Quaal, and aunt, Edna Engebretson.

Frank is survived by Donna’s sister, Lisa Engebretson, and her children - Shantel Engebretson, Caitlyn Westfield (Mitch), and Nathan Onufreychuk (Amber); her five grandchildren and one step-grandchild.
