Farhang Frank Ghomeshi

It is with deep sadness and broken hearts that we announce the death of Farhang (Frank) Ghomeshi, husband, best friend and soulmate to Sara (Azar), loving and proud father to Jila and Jian, and doting grandfather to Kiana, on Thursday October 2, 2014 following a heart procedure at Sunnybrook Hospital. He was surrounded by close family in his final days and is mourned by all who had the privilege to know him.

Frank was many things: sage, charming, pragmatic, and kind. He was also a truly dignified presence who became a role model as the head of a family, a well-respected engineer, a generous and compassionate soul, a proud Canadian, and a member of the Iranian diaspora. He was a modest man, but a powerful presence who touched the hearts of all who had the chance to meet him. He will be dearly missed.

Following a private funeral earlier in the week, a memorial service and celebration of his life will be held at 2pm on Saturday October 11, 2014 at Le Parc (8432 Leslie St, Thornhill).

Donations in Frank's memory may be made to the Heart & Stroke Foundation at www.heartandstroke.com.
