Beloved husband and best friend of Nel for more than 70 years. Loving father of Gerda (Al) Smith, Annet (Gerry Smith) Viveen, John Viveen, and Peter (Vera) Viveen. Proud and loving Opa to Coree (King Laurin) Smith, Matthew Viveen, Steven Viveen, and Brielle Viveen.
He will also be lovingly remembered by his extended family and friends in Canada and Holland.
Frank served in the Dutch Army as a driver from 1951-1953. The family emigrated to Canada in 1960, first to Strathroy and then to Cambridge. He was very proud of his Tool and Die trade, working for various companies in the area and retiring in 1990 from Bundy Manufacturing Canada.
Frank and Nel both enjoyed travelling, they went all over the United States, Canada, and Europe and took various cruises. Hockey and soccer were both games that he enjoyed watching and playing in his younger years. He was very proud of the 'house on the hill' that he built but the most important thing that he loved and was proud of was his family.
In accordance with his wishes, cremation has taken place.
As expressions of sympathy, donations in Frank's memory to Cambridge Memorial Hospital would be appreciated by his family.
