Hass, Frank Peter, 44 went to be with the lord on Friday, May 4th, 2012 at Dr. P. Phillips Hospital in Orlando, Florida, after a valiant battle with cancer. Frank proudly served in the United States Marine Corps after graduating from Dixie Hollins High School. After his service in the military, Frank went on to receive his Electrical Engineering B.S. degree from Milwaukee School of Engineering and later his Masters from University of South Florida. While his career took him many places, his final employment was with Oceaneering Entertainment Systems in Orlando, Florida. It was there that Frank obtained his “dream job”, being afforded the opportunity to design and work on theme park attractions all across the world. Frank is survived by his wife of 16 years, Tamara; his children, Olivia, Sophia, and Frank II. He was a loving son to Francis Hass of St. Petersburg, Florida and Geraldine Wimmers of Orlando, Florida, as well as proud brother to Janet and Laura both of Clearwater, Florida. Frank also leaves behind six nieces and nephews that he cherished, and an enormous amount of friends and family that loved and respected him. This world certainly lost a remarkable man and many will mourn his loss.
A memorial service will be held for Frank on Saturday, May 19th, 2012 at Holy Family Catholic Church in Orlando, Florida. In lieu of flowers, a fund has been established for the Hass Family children.

I just wanted to say I hope you are truly happy looking down on all of us and what a wonderful friend, brother & father you are. I also wanted to let you know what a great job your wife is doing in continuing to raise your wonderful family. Tammy has faced many new challenges and barriers and each time has come through in flying colors (God bless her). Even with all the new obstacles and life tests, she continues to make loving her family and making them feel special number one. She could use a little encouragement every now and then so feel free to give her a sign and let her know you are still watching over her and the family. Each one of your children is so very special in their own right and would make you proud with their hard work and accomplishments, they all remind me of you. Your sister has had to face new challenges as a single mom and has done well but also could use a little brotherly sign to let her know you are watching over her and her family too! I miss you my friend and wait for that day in the future when we get to catch up again.
Take care,
Alan
To Tamara, Olivia, Sophia, Frankie and Frank's family my sincerest condolences for your loss. Although this was a very long journey for Frank, it still felt like it came on suddenly. This is attributed to the way Frank chose to manage the situation. I do not believe I ever heard him complain once.
This should be an inspiration to us all.
Sincerely,

To Frank's family: My sincere condolences for your loss. I know it must be hard trying to understand why such a great man left this world too quickly. Know that he is an inspiration to many of those who had the pleasure to meet him and that he will be missed by many. God Bless
How many hours did we talk about batteries and chargers? Should have spent more time talking about Van Halen. Farewell my friend, it was a privilege to know you. I'm sorry you had to go. My deepest regards to the Hass family, may Frank's spirit always be with you.
Girl meets Boy. Girl beats Boy at darts. (Or, Boy lets Girl beat him at darts because he REALLY likes her; it depends on who is telling the story.) Girl and Boy say good night without exchanging last names or phone numbers. Girl drags darts partner to MSOE library to pore through yearbooks for hours looking for Boy. (Girl is smitten.) Boy is flattered. Boy asks girl to Halloween party (their first date)
And the next thing you know, they are happily married with three beautiful children!
I wish with all my heart that I could have written the latest chapter of their love story differently, but it will never really end. Hasses stick together, and Frank will be watching over his family from above.
Jacki Ejka and family
