Frank Gardner Obituary

Graduation Year Class of 1961
Date of Passing Feb 22, 2015
About Frank was an adventurer and a friend of the world and always seemed to enjoy meeting people and socializing during his teaching (safety classes as a Certified Safety Professional) and travels. He was a great story-teller. He loved boating and fishing, chess, tried acting (as one of the leads in the Odd Couple in a community theater production), patented a pet passport, and in recent years had a passion for golf and RV-ing. Other than getting rich maybe, I don’t think there was much in life that he wanted to do that he hadn’t accomplished. He died unexpectedly and is survived by his loving wife, children, sister, nephew, granddaughter and grandnephew, and pets who were like children. He retired from the U.S. Navy, lived in Olympia, Washington, and the Villages, Florida.
