Frank Albert Armstrong

Frank A. Armstrong's courageous battle against lymphoma ended on December 24, 2019. He died at home surrounded by his loving family. He was 77.

Frank was born on December 10, 1942, in South Porcupine, Ontario, Canada. He was the oldest of three sons to John and Gladys Armstrong, who preceded him in death. Frank moved to the United States in early childhood, and later became a proud U.S. citizen. A graduate of both Indiana University and Webster College, Frank had a keen intellect and insatiable curiosity. Frank's proud career took him through the United States Air Force and the Department of Energy. Along the way, he made many valuable and lasting friendships which he treasured.

Frank met the love of his life, Cynthia, in Michigan City, Indiana in 1967. They were married in 1968 and had a wonderful, loving 51 year marriage. This union produced their amazing daughter, Anne.

Frank is survived by his wife, Cynthia, daughter Anne (Arman Dowgiert) Armstrong, brother Richard J. (Joyce) Armstrong, nieces Laura and Pamela, and brother-in-law John S. Pliske. He is also survived by his dear friend of 47 years, Therese Lucito, and his trusty hound, Thor. Also preceding him in death was his brother Patrick Armstrong.

A celebration of Frank's life will be held at 2:00 pm, Friday, January 17, 2020, at Horan and McConaty, 3101 South Wadsworth Boulevard, Lakewood, Colorado. As many of you know, Frank loved his Hawaiian shirts. If you like, please wear one to his celebration. A reception for friends and relatives will be held at Maggiano's Little Italy, Englewood, Colorado, directly following the service.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, lls.org, in Frank's name.
