Predeceased in 2004 by his beloved wife Anne (&#8220;Annie&#8221;). Lovingly remembered by his daughters Carol Wherry and Linda and son-in-law Gary MacLeod. Kind, wonderful and much loved Grampa to Ian (Margaret-Anne) MacLeod, Roger (Carol) MacLeod and Brendan (Michelle) Wherry. Proud great-grandpa to 2 boys and 3 girls. Frank was a resident of Long Branch for more than 75 years. In 1950 he and his business partner founded Leeson &amp; Baxter Metal Fabrication in Long Branch and later moved the business to Mississauga. He also served as a brave Volunteer Fireman for the Village during the time when the devastating Long Branch Hotel and the Dominion Store fires took place and also risked his life, along with others, in the rescue operations during Hurricane Hazel. A special thank-you to the kind staff and volunteers of Lakeshore Lodge, especially those of 4N, who looked after him so well and came to appreciate his good nature and off-beat humour. Friends will be received at the Ridley Funeral Home, 3080 Lake Shore Blvd. W. (between Islington and Kipling Aves., at 14th St., 416-259-3705) on Tuesday, June 3, 2008 from 2 to 4 pm and 6 to 8 pm. A Service will be held in the Chapel Wednesday at 10am. Interment Springcreek Cemetery, Mississauga. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the CNIB or a charity of your choice.
