Frank John Drahos

Frank John Drahos Sr. of Sarver Pennsylvania, Born September 30th 1943, has peacefully passed away on February 1st at his home in Port Charlotte Florida.

Frank was the second child of Josephine Cupek Drahos and Frank Wendell Drahos. He is preceded in death by his sister Loretta Drahos, Son Frank John Drahos Jr and his grandson Zach Bombalski. Frank is survived by his wife of 55 years Sandra Drahos (Pajer), Brother Edward Drahos (Bernie Drahos), Brother Regis Drahos Sr (Sue Drahos), Sister-in-law Suzanne Houze (Gerald Houze) and Grandchildren Tori Drahos and Frankie Drahos (Yui Drahos).

Frank was a man of many adventures who worked hard and played even harder. He served 2 years in the Navy during the Vietnam War. Upon returning, he and his brother took over their parents' Sunoco gas station and added a bait/tackle section turning it into Drahos Bait & Tackle. After a few years, a new venture was calling. Frank loved to hunt and trap many game species, so he established his own fur trading business leading to woodland adventures all over North America. When Frank wasn’t working, you could always find him fishing, playing poker with his friends or winning big at the casino.

To all friends and family, there will not be a public service held. Live life like Frank did and keep him in your memory. “A person has 3 deaths in life, the first is when the body ceases to function, the second is when the body is laid to rest, the third is when your name is spoken for the last time.”- David M.
