E. FRANK HOWENSTINE

E. Frank Howenstine, 66, of Roberts, Wis., died Wednesday, Feb. 13, 2013, at his home.

Frank was born the son of Edward and Eva (Filteau) Howenstine on Jan. 21, 1947, in Superior. In July 1967, he married Nancy Paquette.

Frank was an honest, hard-working man of God who thought of others first. He was known for his easy manor and laid back personality, making friends wherever he went. He enjoyed hunting and spending time with his horse, Ben. He was an enthusiastic Packers fan and was always up for a good game of cards with friends and family.

He was an active member of The Assembly of God Church in River Falls, Wis., where he gave generously of his time and talents.

Frank was an amazing father and uncle and will be greatly missed by "his girls". He spent 37 years here on earth with his loving wife, Nancy, and has now joined her to spend eternity in Heaven.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Edward and Eva; wife Nancy; and his sister, Kathryn Prosecky.

Frank is survived by his daughter, Rachelle Howenstine; nieces Barbara Prosecky and Rebecca Prosecky; and nephew Jeffrey Prosecky.

VISITATION: 5-8 p.m. today, Feb. 17, and 10 until the 11 a.m. memorial service Monday, Feb. 18, all in River Falls Assembly of God Church.

Arrangements are with Bakken-Young Funeral & Cremation Services of River Falls.

I remember when I was 4 years old and Frankie would take me horseback riding. It's one of those memories that stick with a person. May God bless his survivors because they deserve it.. Dennis Hall
