Frank graduated from St. Frances de Sales High School, where he met the love of his life, Nancy. The two were married on August 16, 1958, in Detroit and shared 65 wonderful years of marriage together. Their love, commitment, and devotion to one another were the foundation of their family and an inspiration to all who knew them.
Together, Frank and Nancy were blessed with six wonderful children: Kevin (Renee) Percin, Kimberly (Ray) Thorp, Keith (Kelly) Percin, Karen (Adam) Olweean, Kenneth Percin, and Kyle (Jennifer) Percin.
Frank was a proud and loving grandfather to Kevin (Haley) Percin, Tom (Taylor) Percin, Stephanie (Onur) Guler, Michael Thorp, William Thorp, Brandon Percin, Eric Percin, Brooklynne Percin, Adam Olweean, Ashley Olweean, Nicholas (Olivia) Percin, Zachary Percin, Tyler (Samantha) Stone, Miranda (Jay) Henning, Evan Percin, Jessica Percin, and Tate Percin.
He was also a loving great-grandfather to Aksel Guler, Asher Percin, Lincoln Percin, and Ginny Percin.
Frank was preceded in death by his parents, Frank J. Percin and Aretta (Donahue) Percin; his beloved wife, Nancy (May) Percin; his granddaughter, Kylie Percin; and his sister and brother-in-law, Joan (Chuck) Bauer.
He is survived by his sister-in-law, Denise (Chuck) Cassar, and brother-in-law, Fred (Jeanne) Page, along with his loving children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, extended family, and many friends.
Frank’s greatest accomplishment was not found in the years he spent working, but in the family and life he built with Nancy. He was a devoted husband, a loving father, a proud grandfather, and a cherished great-grandfather. His greatest joy was seeing his family together, watching his children grow, and being surrounded by the generations that followed.
Frank leaves behind a lifetime of memories—family gatherings, stories shared, laughter around the table, and countless moments that will be treasured for years to come. Though he is no longer here to share those moments, the love he gave and the lessons he taught will live on through every generation of his family.
His life was a testament to the things that matter most: love, family, faith, hard work, and a lifetime of memories made with the people he loved. Frank’s greatest legacy is the family he and Nancy created, and he will forever hold a special place in their hearts.
He lived a life of love, gave his family a lifetime of memories, and left behind a legacy that will live on forever.
