Frank A. Ostrosky

Mr. Frank A. Ostrosky, age 52, of Frankfort, passed away on Saturday, December 29, 2007 in the comfort of his home after a courageous battle with cancer. His loving family was by his side at the time of his passing. Born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on August 9, 1955, Frank was the son of Wanda (Juskowich) and the late Frank Ostrosky. On November 15, 1974 at St. Anthony of Padua Church, he was united in marriage to the former Marion Tinker with whom he shared a blessed union of over 34 years. For many years Frank worked as an independent trucker and excavator and was very proud of the business he built over the many years. He continued his career until the onset of his illness. A jack-of-all-trades, and sometimes referred to as "Macgyver" he was skilled at fixing many things. Frank was held in high regard as a model family man whose attentions were always focused on his loved ones and his home. To know him was to love him. A civic minded man, he was a member of the Free and Accepted Masons, Oriental-Faxton Lodge No. 224, a former member of the Marcy Moose Lodge 450, and a past volunteer of the Frankfort Hill Fire Department. He was a communicant of St. Anthony of Padua Church. Frank is survived by his wife, Marion; his daughters, Jennifer and Thomas Williams of Syracuse, Sandra Holmes, and Kelley Ostrosky, both at home, and his son, Frank S. Ostrosky of Frankfort; and his grandchildren, Heather, Hannah, and Jack Williams. Also surviving are his sisters and brothers-in-law, Linda and Robert Martire of Pittsburgh, Sheila Hurd of Ilion, Beverly and John Doolen of Frankfort, and MaryAnn Ostrosky of Utica; and his brother, Charles Ostrosky of Bridgewater. His extended family, Stanley Mogyoros of Pittsburgh, many nieces & nephews; his in-laws, Patricia Esper, Brian and Sally DeStefanis, Joseph and Lauren Tinker, Tamara Pastorelli, AnnMarie Cittadino, and Linda Tucci; and his many close friends, too numerous to mention. Visitation will be held Tuesday (today) from 4:00-7:00 at the Eannace Funeral Home, Inc., 932 South St., corner of Hammond Ave. Frank’s funeral service will commence on Wednesday morning at 9:00 from the funeral home and at 10:00 at St. Anthony of Padua Church where his Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated. Interment will take place at the convenience of the family.
