He was preceded in death by both his parents, who undoubtedly welcomed him with open arms. In life, Frank found profound joy and purpose in his work as a master carpenter. His exceptional skill and passion for building left a lasting mark on countless projects and the people who had the privilege of working alongside him. His hands were seasoned by years of dedication, creating not just structures but lasting memories. Beyond his career, Frank was a man of varied interests.

His pets, especially his loyal companion J.R., held a special place in his heart, epitomizing the profound bond between a man and his best friend. Frank's greatest joy was his family. His life companion of 22 years, Rebecca Netterstrom, stood by his side through life's journey, sharing in its many wonders and challenges. He is survived by his two sons, Frank E. Rasnic and his wife Pamela, and Keith Rasnic and his wife Carla, who continue to carry forward his legacy of integrity and love. His daughter, Brandy Metz, and her husband Mike, also cherish the memories of a father whose support knew no bounds. Frank's sister, Charlotte Newell, and her husband J.R., along with his eight grandchildren, two great-grandchildren, and three nieces, hold dear the memories of a man whose kindness knew no limits.
