Frank immigrated with his family from the small village of Shondorf, Romania to Manitoba in 1936. His family, his Father Frank (Predeceased 1985) and Mother Margaret (predeceased 2006) eventually settled in Niagara Falls where he spent his final years. He continued the family's involvement with the German Village as a longtime board member working towards making improvements and participating in all events. Frank graduated from the University of Windsor as a Civil Engineer. His illustrious career included Salesperson of the Year with Allstate Insurance, Windsor, H.G. Acres, Niagara Falls, Vice President of Fibreglass Canada, Toronto. He was passionate about his work in real estate, property development and management under Herman Development Corp. where he subcontracted for the Barn Fruit Markets and Denningers Fine Foods. Frank had a passion for politics and campaigned for numerous positions of government. He was part of the closest three way race for MPP in all of Hamilton Wentworth history! Frank was a constant dreamer and always had a project in the works. He lived his life on his terms until the very end. Frank enjoyed his last days remaining in his home, in his favourite chair, watching his favourite shows and sports. He was an avid fan of the Buffalo Bills and didn't miss a game. This was made possible by the compassionate care and daily visits of his special friend Kathleen and longtime friend Marta, bringing him his favourite meals to enjoy. The Rite of Committal has taken place. A Memorial Mass will take place on Saturday, October 16 at 1 pm at Our Lady of Peace Catholic Church with a private Celebration of Life to follow.
