We Remember
GERLITSCH, Frank
—
1934 – 2025
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved Frank, who left us peacefully on October 7, 2025, at the Hospice House Kelowna. Frank was a cherished husband, father, grandfather, and friend – remembered for his zest for life, carpet bowling, flying adventures, and his love of a good cup of coffee and a sweet.
Frank was born on December 12, 1934, in Salzburg, Austria, and throughout his life he touched the hearts of all who knew him. He will be deeply missed by his loving wife Pat, son Ralph (Tina), stepdaughters Shirley (Leo), Donna (David), and Theresa (Don), and their families.

I miss carpet bowling with Frank. His smile would light up his whole face, and he liked to pretend to poke me with the ball gathering stick as we passed each other.
Dear Pat, Jack and I were so sorry to hear of Frank’s passing. He always had a smile and a friendly hello. He will be missed by many in the Village.
