FRANK EDWARD MARYNOWSKI March 7, 1950 - June 18, 2005 On June 18, 2005 at 3:05 a.m. at the St. Boniface Hospital, my beloved husband Frank was gently lifted by angels' arms and peacefully whisked away to meet his Creator. He leaves to mourn his wife and soul mate of 33 years, Ghislaine. He also leaves behind his mother Mrs. Annie Marynowski, sister Mary Arseny (Bill), brothers, Bobby (Gwen), Eugene (Marion), Paul (Marilyn), Rose Naherniak (Rev. Oris), and Russell (Marilyn). He will also be greatly missed by brothers-in-law, sisters-in-law, many nephews, nieces and dear friends. He was predeceased by his father Walter on September 2, 1975. Frank was born on March 7, 1950 on the family farm in Zhoda, MB. He was the fifth of seven children. Frank went to work in Winnipeg but would always return home on the weekends to help his Mom right to the end. He married the love of his life and soul mate Ghislaine (nee Balcaen) on May 6, 1972. Frank was a kind, gentle and loving man. He would help anyone who was in need. He was deeply loved by his nephews and nieces and he in turn deeply loved them. He enjoyed teasing, playing and teaching them many of life's lessons. They could not wait to see their Uncle Frank. He would always have some kind of treat hidden somewhere for them. Frank loved to go out to the cottage at Dorothy Lake. He was an avid fisherman and hunter. He just could not wait to get out onto the lake to catch the Big One . He would begin to prepare for the hunting season months in advance! It was not the actual hunting or the fishing; it was the enjoyment of spending time with his friends. Frank started out in the construction industry at an early age and proceeded to work his way up to become General Manager of a well respected water works company. Then in 1990, he decided to venture out on his own, became an entrepreneur, and created Franlaine Construction. Being the perfectionist that he was, he soon had many loyal customer who would rather wait for him to do the job then go elsewhere. Many of those customers became good friends. His friendly, sociable and outgoing personality attracted people to him. He was everyone's friend and will be sadly missed by all who knew him. Special thanks to George Maneluk, Jarvis Swereda, Roy Naurocki and Jarvis Korchak for always being there for Frank during his illness. Also a thank you to all the nurses at St. Boniface Hospital Oncology Department for the wonderful and compassionate care they provided. Funeral services will be held at St. Joachim Roman Catholic Church in La Broquerie, MB on Wednesday, June 22 at 10:30 a.m. with viewing one hour prior to the service. Burial will take place at the Zhoda Community Cemetery. Rest in peace, dear Frank. We will always miss you and love you! Steinbach Funeral Home 5 Chrysler Gate Steinbach, Manitoba 326-1351
