Frank Jamison Obituary

Frank, a longtime resident of Colorado Springs, went to be with his Lord and Savior on April 28, 2013 at the age of 93. He was born on March 19, 1920 in Oskaloosa, Iowa to the late Jessie and Frank H. Jamison, Sr. Frank married Vera Rhodabeck on December 8, 1944 in Oskaloosa, IA. They were happily married for almost 67 years, before her passing on November 6, 2011. Vera was the love of his life, and he is now reunited with her in heaven. After his retirement from the U.S. Postal Service, they traveled to many places in the United States as well as foreign countries. He loved the Lord and enjoyed serving Him in many capacities at Roswell Community Church, to include being a faithful member of the Board of Trustees for many years and a dedicated and worthy Elder. Frank served his country during World War II in the Navy. He was proud to be an American and rarely missed a day flying the US flag in the front yard of his home. Frank enjoyed camping, a rousing game of uno with special neighbors, church functions, and spending time with his family. Surviving him are his three sons: John (Carolyn), Dan (Terry) and Mike (Sheila). He is also survived by 9 grand children, 17 great grandchildren, and several nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Vera, his parents, and his two sisters. Visitation will be held Friday, May 3, from 12:00-1:00 pm at Roswell Community Church, with funeral services starting at 1:00 pm at the church. Entombment will follow at Memorial Gardens Mausoleum. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made in his memory to Roswell Community Church, 2728 Beacon St., C/S, CO 80907.

Mike, John and Dan, so sorry to hear of the passing of your father. Our family will miss seeing him drive the neighborhood in his little red truck. All of us have fond memories of him and your mom being "neighborhood parents" to all of us kids as we were growing up in Mesa Springs. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. The Kostka Family

John, Dan and Mike, what a genuine blessing it has been in my life to know your Dad and witness his love of His Lord, his shining example of a Christian life, and his sweet, sweet spirit. He will be so missed by so many. Heart felt sympathy to you and your families in your time of loss!
