Coral’s family history · Chapter 18

Frank Schruis

Frank M. Schruis (1935–2005) was a family researcher whose interests included genealogy, antiques, woodworking, restoration, and local history. Coral’s chapter preserves an obituary and a farewell message associated with his memorial service.

The farewell remembers friendships and places including Clymer, Ashville, Edinboro, and family connections in the Netherlands. It conveys the importance of gathering around a table, sharing music, and maintaining friendships formed through historical research.

The obituary image and the full farewell message are not reproduced in this public edition. They remain in the private family archive pending a separate review of permission for wider publication.
