Frank was born January 15, 1949, in Little Falls, to Harold & Alvina (Wielenberg) Strom. On July 14, 1973, he married Deborah Tretter at the Epiphany Church in Coon Rapids. Frank and Debby made their home in Coon Rapids until 1994, when they moved to Bertha. Together they owned and operated Whoopee Inn for 15 years. Frank was a gentle giant who loved his dogs, sports, fishing, hunting and his old red truck. He also enjoyed six wheeling, feeding the birds, decorating for the holidays, and being outdoors. He worked hard his whole life and was known for never meeting a stranger; he could talk with anyone.
Frank is survived by his wife Debby of Bertha; children: Shane, Jeremiah, Nickolas and Carrie Strom all of Bertha; nieces, Missy Tretter and Angela Morazan; siblings: Martin (Jan) Strom of Upsala, Loren Strom of Randall, Leah Ahrens of Sauk Centre, Evie Repp of Upsala, Maurice (Rose) Strom of Backus, Paul (Linda) Strom of Upsala, Mary Fisher of Pierz, Lisa Fox of Avon and Moses (Beth) Strom of Little Falls.
Frank is preceded in death by his parents; in-laws and sisters-in-law Susie and Nancy.
