Frank J. Hoey entered the heavens on the afternoon of Thursday, September 17, 2020 after reaching the young age of 86.  He passed peacefully within his home in Canyon Lake, Texas with his beloved wife, Irene, by his side.

From 1958 to 1965, he was an Assistant Professor and Head Football and Baseball Coach at Western Montana College, where he led the football team to three consecutive MCC football championships.  In 1966, the National Junior Chamber of Commerce included Frank as one of the Outstanding Young Men of America.

Frank was a beloved husband, father, grandfather, and great grandfather, who dedicated many years of his life to helping others and in service to his faith at Canyon Lake Presbyterian Church as an elder.  He also served his local and global community as both an Alzafar Shriner since 1974 and as a Master Mason for over 60 years. Frank retired from Government Personnel Mutual Life Insurance Company in 1996 after nearly 20 years of service.
