Frank was born in Transcona, on August 15, 1937. He attended Transcona Central School, graduating in 1954. Frank was employed with CN Rail, Symington Yards, retiring at the age of 50. Upon retirement Frank opened AAA Park Avenue Driving School, successfully helping numerous students in achieving their driver's licenses. Frank loved watching curling, football and hockey with his favorite team being the Chicago Blackhawks. In his younger years he played baseball for the Elmwood Junior Giants, and in 2008 was inducted into the Manitoba Baseball Hall of Fame. Frank was an accomplished saxophone player and member of the band "The Cavaliers" playing many weddings and social events. Frank loved spending summers at the cabin he built at Lester Beach … his paradise.

Frankie was part of a group of schoolmates, Eileen, Ralph, Emile who were surrogate babysitters, dragging E’s little sister on their escapades… "knock on ginger", tintin runaway (a form of cricket, I think), allies in the snow, smoking ‘real’ grass on the future site of St. Mike’s, hide and seek. Sad…they are all gone. - Posted by: Wilma Hewitson Parasiuk (friend) on: Nov 16, 2022

So sorry to hear of your dad’s passing. As soon as I saw his name the memory it evoked was “Hi. My name is Cliff. Why don’t you drop in sometime.” Silly joke but we all laughed so hard we were crying! - Posted by: Cindy Schulz (High school friend to Rhonda) on: Nov 13, 2022

Frank was a part of my life as a little girl. He and my father, Laurie Degryse (aka Smokey), played in the Cavaliers together. When my Dad died, Frank was one of the people I called to share our sad news. And, of course he came to pay his respects to my Dad. RIP Frank. - Posted by: Deb Degryse Clark (family friend) on: Nov 13, 2022
