NICHOLSON

Frank Nicholson of Moose Jaw, passed away suddenly Friday August 22, 2014. Frank’s love for his family was immeasurable as was their love for him. He will be sadly missed by his wife and best friend Brenda Nicholson (25 years); his children, Debra, Deana, Ryan (Erica Wolfe), Cody, and Kaitlyn (Robby Downton); brothers and sisters, Lawrence (Juanita), Shirlee Budau (Gary Anderson), Margaret(T.J.) Leblanc, Mervin, Lorraine Michon and Wilfred. Frank will also be missed by his nieces and nephews and his extended family on the Day Star First Nation. Frank was predeceased by his parents Edna and Clarence (Jack) Nicholson, brother Ernest, infant brother Peter, sister Violet and son-in-law Paul Brun. Frank loved the outdoors. He was happiest spending time with his family and friends hunting, fishing, sitting by a cozy campfire or chatting over a cup of coffee, teasing and telling silly stories. He was extremely proud of his Metis heritage and was involved with several Metis organizations early in his life. Frank worked at several different jobs during his life but he especially enjoyed being a salesman. His day was made when he was able to "cinch the deal". The Funeral Service will be held at St.Aidan Anglican Church on Tuesday September 2, 2014 at 11:00 am. Father Dean Pinter will officiate. Visitation for family and friends will be held at W.J.Jones & Son Chapel on Monday from 7 – 8 pm. Interment will take place at the Day Star First Nation Cemetery. For those so wishing, memorial donations may be directed to the Sask. Heart & Stroke Foundation, 279 3rd Ave., N., Saskatoon, S7K 2H8. In living memory of Frank, a memorial planting will be made by W.J. Jones & Son Funeral Home. Please sign the memorial register at website: www.wjjonesandson.com (Obituaries).
