KNEELAND, FRANCIS “FRANK”
It is with heavy hearts that the family of Frank Kneeland announces his passing which occurred on Thursday, January 28, 2016 at the Saint John Regional Hospital. He was born on May 2, 1933 to the late Roy and Beatrice (O’Brien) Kneeland.
Frank enjoyed life and definitely had an ear for music; he decided to learn to play guitar at the age of 65 and was a natural. Along with playing, he also enjoyed singing and dancing. Frank will be remembered for his sense of humour and the nicknames he bestowed on those he met. He will be missed by all who knew him and loved him.
