Frank "Skip" Tregear, 83, left this world to be with the Lord on September 12, 2021. Frank was born on April 6, 1938 in Philadelphia, PA to Harry and Dorothy Tregear who preceded him in death. Skip, as he was known to many, grew up in Philadelphia and graduated from West Catholic High School for Boys.
He was married to Suzanne Donnelly, the love of his life and who preceded him in death, for 33 years. Skip is survived by 7 children: Maryanne (Mike), Kathleen (Gerry), Suzanne (Marty), Donna, Michael, Maureen, and Matthew; 2 step children: Michele (Danny) and Joseph (Rebecca); 7 siblings, 10 grandchildren, 9 great grandchildren, and 1 great-great grandson. Pop was preceded in death by 1 granddaughter and 1 great granddaughter.
Skip and Suzanne made their home in Houston, TX. He worked as an accounting supervisor for both Chevron and Baylor College of Medicine. He was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, brother, friend and later in life was known as "Pop" to everyone. He loved the beach and referred to it as his "Happy Place" especially when Suzanne was by his side.
During the last 10 years of his life, Skip was physically challenged with Multiple Myeloma and the implications of its treatment. He was extremely grateful to Dr. Gustavo Rivero and his team for the care they provided. However, the depth of gratitude and love he felt for Michele and Danny who took him into their home was immeasurable.
Please join us for a celebration of Skip's life at St. Joseph Roman Catholic Church, 606 Shore Rd., Somers Point, New Jersey on Saturday, October 16, 2021 at 10:30 AM. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society or St. Jude's Children's Hospital.
