Frank MAZZONE Obituary

Published by Vancouver Sun and/or The Province from Mar. 11 to Mar. 12, 2017.
MAZZONE, Frank
January 15, 1928 – March 8, 2017
Today the Ladner Leisure Centre, lost a loyal, although unpaying, customer. After 25 years in the Ladner community Frank Mazzone will no longer be causing trouble. Frank died peacefully, surrounded by his family at Royal Columbian Hospital on March 8, 2017. Born on January 15, 1928, Frank touched the lives of all who knew him. As a beloved husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather, he was devoted to his family, and will be remembered for his light hearted sense of humor and his love of breakfast desserts. Frank is survived in legacy by his wife, Sheila, his children Julia, Larry and Gina and their loving spouses, Garfield, Levern, and Ernie. Cherished Grandfather to Kristin (Terry), Garrett (Christine), Shane, Shannon (Matthew), Ashley and Kelsey. Audrina, Ella, Roman and Evelyn will forever miss Great-Grampa Franks' endless supply of ice cream revels, and playing hide and seek in the kitchen pantry. Frank lived his life to the fullest, whether at work or at play, he did it all...and he did it with a joke and a smile. With too many accomplishments to list, his greatest was marrying the woman of his dreams, Miss Comox Valley, with the pretty bright eyes. Frank and Sheila had a love that was electrifying. They undertook adventures that took travelling to destinations that had both an outlet mall and a golf course. As a lifelong golfer, he will be sadly missed at Country Meadows Seniors Men's Golf League, not only for his great sportsmanship, but also his always available "fireball flask." His bag of found and stolen balls will be used by his family for many years to come. As he wished, we will not be having a service but instead ask you all to spend a moment with a loved one, with a glass of red or a bowl of ice cream.
"It's been fabulous".

So sorry to hear of Frank's passing. I remember Frank's outgoing and fun-loving personality. All during my life with Earl, I heard many wonderful stories about the Mazzone uncles and how they all positively shaped Earl's growing up years. Frank, especially, was an important influence on Earl's life.
Thinking of Sheila and the rest of the family.
Love,
Jane Orme and (grown up) children Michael and Patrick

Wonderful memories of our days at Crawford Storage with Frank, Rollie and the old gang. My condolences to Sheila and the family - what a wonderful life he had.

Although there is sadness when someone we know or love leaves us, how they touched our lives remains with us forever. When I was a little girl, through my mom and Albert, I met the Mazzone family on East 63rd or 64th off Main Street, and during the fulsome of time Frank has been the most wonderful, caring and inspirational individual I have ever met. His zest of life, stories and jokes makes me laugh even today as I reminisce over the years especially those
fun times in Scottsdale. Thanks for the memories...

Our thoughts and prayers to Sheila and the Mazzone Family. So many fond memories of Frank and his many friends with my parents as I was growing up, and later on in life when that same group of friends would let us tag along to the Arizona Desert with them all for Golf, shopping and sitting around the pool playing cards. He was a true character and will be always fondly remembered by the Sita Family
