With family by his side, Frank passed away at Hospice Simcoe, Barrie after a brief fight with cancer on Saturday, January 28, 2023 at the age of 56. Beloved spouse of Carole Moses. Loving father to Lachlan. Dear brother to Susan Law (Bruce), Betty Jarvis (Ken), John Shank (Jody Prentice), and James Shank (Lynn Murray). Predeceased by his parents Victor (2008) and Theresa Shank (1984), and infant twin siblings (1954). Frank will be forever loved and remembered by extended family, friends and his furry companions Emma and Rayne.

Frank was a talented sheet metal worker and gas fitter by trade.  He was a long-standing member of the Sheet Metal Workers International Association, Local 30 in Toronto.  Frank believed strongly in educating the next generation of apprentices and assisted in preparing them for their careers in the trade.

Cremation has taken place and a Celebration of Frank’s life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers donations to the Hospice Simcoe or the Canadian Cancer Society would be appreciated.
