(MyKeeneNow) – Frank Tice Fawcett, born August 6, 1986, passed away unexpectedly in his home in Hancock on Aug. 11.

Frank, also known as “Frankie”, “Frenchy”, “Boogie”, and the family favorite, “Toilet Hitter”, will be remembered for many things, by a lot of people. He was a beloved husband, father, son, brother, uncle, cousin, and friend.

He will be remembered as a talented mechanic, with a love for anything with a motor. Frank was always working on something- or three to five things. This love, along with a dream of following in his father’s footsteps, led him to become a long-haul truck driver. Most recently, he had been driving for GMH, and was awarded “Driver of the Year” in 2023.

On the rare occasion that he would step away from his work and projects, Frank enjoyed 4- wheeling, cooking with his smoker, and camping- usually while holding a Twisted Tea. Frank was fire-y, and bold, and straightforward. He never left anyone guessing where he stood. You could always read his mood by the music he was listening to, some of his favorites being Garth Brooke’s and Tony Justice. He liked for things to be routine – except when he didn’t. Sometimes, he would be hit with a sudden urge, and now leaves his family with many cherished memories of spontaneous adventures together.

Frank leaves behind his wife, Kayla Fawcett, three biological children, Adrienne Fawcett (15), Ashton Fawcett (3), Aspen Fawcett (2), and five step-children, Kayden (13), Christopher (8), Kye (7), Callie (5), and Ivy (5). He is also survived by his parents, Duane and Brenda Fawcett, and his sister, Sara Sullivan.
