Frank was born May 18, 1936, son of Lando and Agnes (Haus) Mishak of New Hampton, IA. Frank was a graduate of Algona High School. Frank married Marlys Yegge in Algona, IA on November 30, 1957, and from this union four children were born.

Frank was a lover of many things, especially his family and being outdoors. Grilling for family and friends was always something he looked forward to. Hunting and golfing were often hobbies he could be found doing. His last big hunting trip was last year to Canada for a bear hunting trip, where he was able to bring home a big black bear. Traveling with Marlys was also something he enjoyed doing.
