FRANK STOGRIN August 29, 1931 - December 29, 2012 Frank Stogrin with his family by his side gave into the pain and left us to remember him with wonderful memories. He leaves behind his wife Sally of 55 years, his children Bill (Jocelyn), Sophie, Carol, Patricia (Ward), Kathy (Joe), Joe (Tanya) grandchildren Steven, Sarah (Darryl), Shannon (Donovan), John (Morgan), Scott (Brittanie), Shane (Colette), Shawna (Tom), Caitlyn (Ryan), Amanda, Chris, great-grandchildren Clare, Grace, Ruth, Tess and Dominic, Auntie Rose, cousins, sister and brothers-in-law and lots of nieces and nephews. Frank spent the last 55 years doing what he loved best by fixing anything that did not move until it did. His saying was If I can't fix it, it ain't worth fixing. For that reason his nickname at any shop he worked at was Super Wrench . He loved to pass on the knowledge on how to fix things and the only stupid question was the one you didn't ask. He could never say no to an auction sale. His dollar boxes always had a treasure of some kind. If he bought something that didn't work, soon enough it would! Frank never did go to funerals and his reason was I'd rather remember them alive than seeing them dead. For this reason cremation has taken place and no formal service will be held.
