Papa is in my very first memory of my life. I will always cherish my memories of sitting on his lap while he told the story of the Boy Who Cried Wolf. It was always my favourite story. I'm so grateful that my son, John, got to know his Papa Vresk and I will make sure to keep his memory alive. He was a loving and happy man and will be missed by all who were lucky enough to know him.

I was truly blessed to have grown up with two loving parents and 3 older wonderful brothers.
Frank was full of values, ethics, and knowledge that he enjoyed sharing with us. His love of family was first and foremost, a true brother, a true friend.
He kept the family home full of fun, joy, excitement, and togetherness growing up and every time he came home.
Thank you for your genuine kindness, never ending support, guidance, generosity, and most of all your love.
He has left us with many wonderful memories and a very special place in our hearts.
Loving sister Barbara Lederman and brother Sam Vresk and families of Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario Canada

My family has been sitting next to Frank every Sunday morning mass at St. Bernard Parish. He always had a smile for my kids and a kind word. His presence at mass has been missed for the past few weeks. My deepest condolences to Frank’s family.
