July 12, 1926 — December 7, 2015

Francis "Frank" Geehan, 89, passed away peacefully on December 7, 2015. Preceded in death by parents Francis and Gertrude (Donnelly) Geehan, his sons Joseph and Gregory and his beloved brothers Elmer and Donald.

Born in Cedar Lake Township, Frank was a lifelong Minnesota resident. He proudly served in the Navy during World War II aboard the USS Broadwater, an attack transport warship defending our country in the waters of the South Pacific. Frank was a Master plasterer and owner of Geehan Stucco Company for over 60 years. His excellent skills can be seen in homes throughout the West 7th, Highland Park and Macalester-Groveland neighborhoods of St. Paul. He was very social and loved dining out every day! He loved sports just about as much as he loved sweets. His sense of humor, upbeat spirit and willingness to help attitude will be greatly missed. He led a full life and leaves behind many loved ones. We will miss him immeasurably. Special thanks to his caregivers at Episcopal Homes-The Gardens.
