WINDHAGER, Frank - It is with great sadness, the family announces that Frank Windhager, just shy of his 100th birthday passed away quietly at Southlake Regional Health Centre in Newmarket on April 11, 2016.
He is survived by his beloved wife of 75 years Erna, his grandchildren, Stephen and Lindsay, great grandchildren, Tlaloc, Zyanya, Diana, and Alexander, and daughter-in-law Becky. He will be sadly missed by his relatives living in Germany and he will be reunited with his late son Dieter. Frank worked as a skilled cabinet maker in Germany from a young age, and after moving to Canada in 1953 with his family, he continued his craft, building furniture in Newmarket until retirement.
He continued to create beautiful pieces for the family after his retirement. When he wasn’t in the workshop, he would be outside tending the beautiful garden, or having an animated discussion about world politics.
Frank was a vibrant, passionate man, with a kind and generous spirit, he will be truly missed. We love you Grampa!
