Frank Steigerwalt

Frank E. Steigerwalt, 65, passed away suddenly at the Paula J. Barbor Hospice Home in Fort Dodge on Sept. 20 from cancer.

Frank was born July 28, 1955, to Victor and Frances Steigerwalt in Jefferson. He graduated from Jefferson High School and attended an area community college.   

Frank was pre-deceased by both parents and by his brother, Dennis Steigerwalt.

He is survived by his sisters Jan Walker (husband Jeff Walker), of Norwalk, and Lila Youtsey (husband Terry Youtsey), of Stevensville, Mont.; his sister-in-law, Sharon Steigerwalt, of Gallatin, Mo.; his two daughters Melissa Herald and Vicky Farrell (and their husbands), of Grand Junction, Colo.

Besides his immediate family, Frank leaves behind two aunts, one uncle, three nephews (Aaron Steigerwalt, Eric Steigerwalt and Adam Walker), five grandchildren, a multitude of cousins, and lots of friends.

Frank loved his family, loved family get-togethers, country music, old westerns, playing cards and Mountain Dew. 

The family thanks all of Frank’s friends and medical providers. A celebration of life is planned for the spring.

Rest in peace, Frank. Our hearts are broken, but we will one day meet you again on the other side.
