Residing in Brooklands all of his life, Frank made many lifelong friends, not only in the community, but through his career as a sales representative for Selkirk Metal and as co-owner and founder of Prairie Fireplaces. Frank learned, at a very young age to work hard and never give up. He did this to the very end without losing his sense of humour. The family would like to thank all our relatives, neighbours and friends for their support during Franks illness, especially our Kimberly, who helped make his last days as comfortable as possible. Our thanks also to all the staff at the Palliative Care Program, especially Shirley Toews.
