FRANK G. TINO It is with great sadness that the family announces the sudden passing of our beloved husband, father and grandfather on September 11, 2003. Frank leaves to mourn his loving wife of 25 years, Avis; daughter Kristina (Tim) son Frank and grandson Matthew. Frank is also survived by his mother Jennie; brothers, Joe (Wendy), Greg (Jean) sister Mary (Mike) mother and father-in-law Ed and Ruth Breyfogle, along with numerous aunties, uncles, cousins, in-laws and nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his father Frank Sr. in 1995. Frank was born July 19, 1949. He was a devoted husband, loving father and grandfather. Frank recently completed 20 years of loyal service with Grand & Toy Office Supplies, during which time he created strong bonds and touched many hearts. It was through those bonds that each summer came a week of fishing with the "Pickerel Patrol" at numerous fishing lodges, and his Wednesday night bowling league. His passion for bowling also captured his every Friday night. After his regular Thursday night baseball game, Frank would drive out to his cottage at Lester Beach to spend time with family and friends. From doing odd jobs around the cabin to running around the yard with his grandson Matthew, Frank cherished his time at the lake along with anyone who may have stopped in to visit. Frank was also an active member of the Blessed Sacrament Parish, often volunteering his time and talents cooking for the social club spaghetti dinners. Prayers will be held on Monday, September 15 at 7:00 p.m. and a memorial service on Tuesday, September 16 at 2:00 p.m. Both services will be held at Blessed Sacrament Parish, 425 Rosseau Ave. East followed by entombment in Green Acres Holy Angel Mausoleum. Flowers are graciously declined. If friends so wish, donations in Franks memory may be made to the Childrens Hospital Research Foundation, CE501, 840 Sherbrook St., Winnipeg, MB R3A 1S1. Everyone who was fortunate enough to know Frank was graced by love and kindness; all will sadly miss his energy and passion for life.
