Frank enjoyed spending time with his children and grandchildren. He loved collecting lighthouses, rocks from the many beaches he frequented and many other trinkets that he liked to display around his home. Frank had a green thumb and to make sure the grass was always green he was always puttering around the yard, working on and rebuilding cars, racing box and stock cars. He will be greatly missed by many.

Per his wishes there will be no services. Condolences may be left at jspelkyfuneralhome.com.

His family would like to thank Dr. Jonathan Bridges and the staff at York Hospital Cardiology and Cardiovascular Care of New Hampshire, Jeff Eaton of Great Works Family Practice, Mallory Evans and Blanca Monteiro of York Hospital Pulmonology, Wentworth Douglas Hospital and Portsmouth hospital for taking great care of their father over the years.
