Frank Olivera Died..

Frank Olivera suffered a massive heart attack yesterday and died.. Frank and his wife Edith are two long time Hoosier Lighthousing Club members and were always there at Michigan City helping in many projects..

Some of you will remember Frank from the attached picture taken at the Grand Rapids Regional when he started wrapping Bill up in the tickets he had purchased to help raise money for lighthouses..



Frank went by silverfox51 here in the Forums..

Either Dave or I will add more information as we get it.. Frank was a great friend and will be missed..

Please keep Edith and her family in your thoughts and prayers..

Such sad news...I will keep Edith and their family in my prayers.

He helped me out several times with questions when I first joined the Forums. Amy and I will keep his family in our thoughts.

Sad to hear. Frank was a dedicated player in our Guess-the-Lighthouse game and we had some very nice e-mail chats. Never met him personally but he will be missed.

Here's a picture of Frank and Edith at our 2009 Club Christmas Party.. Kat posted this image originally..

Edith and family,

In recent years, I helped Frank obtained his favorite lighthouses in double digits. He loved the hunt and was excited when he was successful!

A very special man who loved his lighthouses!

You are in our thoughts and many prayers at this time.

We are very sorry to hear this.

We will keep Frank, Edith, and their family and friends in our prayers !!!

This is a very sad time for us. We enjoyed seeing Frank and Edith at all of the events our Hoosier Lighthouse club did together. Frank was always a happy person who enjoyed life to the fullest.

Edith you and your family are in our prayers.

Mary and Jeff
