Over the years Frans tried many ventures, but ultimately his passion for the great outdoors led him to a career in the forest industry. Frans was a self taught, self made man with many hobbies and interests. Some of Frans’ greatest joys were quad rides with his best buddy Rambo, monkey wrenching in his shop, walks with his grandchildren, coffee with family and friends on the porch and maintaining his “unlimited” supply of firewood. In later years, his days were devoted to maintaining and managing Galaxy Way Campground; this brought many new friends into his life. Frans will be forever remembered and never forgotten for his sense of humor, his devotion to family and friends and his ability to make you smile. There will be a private family graveside service.
