My Condolences to the entire family ! Frank was a very influential part of a lot of young kids growing up in the Swift Current Sk area ! Running the arcade he was always interested in what “his” kids did for the day at school and never hesitated to walk by and throw a few quarters in your game !!
Growing up, I always thought Uncle Frank was the coolest uncle ever. I have so many fond memories. An extra big hug to Aunt Carol! Sending everyone in the family my love and support at this difficult time. Thinking of everyone! *Hugs*
My heartfelt condolences go out to Aunt Caroline and family… More recently dad and Fran would tell me of the wonderful visits they would have with Uncle Frank and Aunt Caroline in Kelowna.. I gave special memories as well goingvto Swift Current for visits as a child.. Take care XO

Our condolences………..Frank was a wonderful person and lots of fun. We will miss his friendly smile and chuckles.
Carol
Losing a love one is never easy. If ever two were one, then surely you and Frank were. If ever a man was loved by a wife, Frank was. If ever a wife was happy in a man, you were Carol. The two of you as a couple dipicked the real meaning of true love! To have each other for 62 years of marriage is a feat in itself. It was a pleasure to have you both in our home whenever you were in Saskatchwan. Please accept our sincere condolences on the loss of Frank and may it provide you comfort In knowing others share your loss. Frank will never be forgotten by Don & I as long as we live!
Penny & Don
Molly & Blaine
Loved ones live on through us in the things they said, the things they did and the stories they’ve told. Molly your father always bragged about you, sharing how wonderful you were and what a good daughter you are. I hope you know that you meant the world to him. I hope in the days ahead you will take time to remember all the good times you shared with your father and all the love he gave you throughout the years. He is not gone; rather, will be watching over you forever.
Your dad was a wonderful man and will be missed!
Love Penny & Don
Deepest Sympathies to Aunt Carol and all the cousins and their families on the loss of a very dear man, Uncle Frank. We always enjoyed our visits with Aunt Carol and Uncle Frank, the last one just last summer when Uncle Frank was telling us of his newly-acclaimed cooking skills. Love and Prayers to all of you! He will be missed dearly!
Deepest sympathies to aunt carol and all my cousins. Lots of great memories growing up with craig and uncle frank always asking what are you boys up to. Thoughts and prayers. Kim,Evelyn and girls.
Dear Caroline & family:
Heartfelt sympathy to each and every one of you. I would have loved to have been there in person to give my support. I will always treasure the memories we had together when John was alive – we had a lot of fun and a lot of laughter. Keeping all of you in my thoughts and prayers at this most difficult time.
Love Mary Sebastian & family
So sorry to hear of Frank’s passing. I have many fond memories of Doug and I hanging around Carol’s Lunch, being at your home and other occasions where we were amused by Frank’s subtle humour. I am honoured to have known such a fine man. He will be missed.
