      • Hey guys. I’m sorry to have to bring sad news. Frank passed away late last year. Here’s a copy of the obituary with details.

        https://nuggetnews.com/Content/Obitu...20/11/11/30197

        Frank R. Ziebert, Maj. Army (Ret.), October 18, 1948 — October 8, 2020
        Tuesday, October 27, 2020 11:09 AM
        Left this world to wander the stars on October 8. Born in Albany, Oregon, October 18, 1948, grew up in Salem before joining the Army and travelling the world to find his wife Faye on a ski trip to Austria.

        Sons Chris (Jenny), Paul (Terri), daughter Chelsea Center (Erin), grandchildren Lily, Gavin, Colette, Mazzy and Crue, and brother Dan (Debbie) are heartbroken by his passing, but thankful his battle is over. He bravely fought brain cancer for 14 months, but it never defeated his spirit.

        Frank was a man of many talents and careers: 23 years flying helicopters in the Army; 15 years as a sheriff’s deputy in Salt Lake City; and a volunteer and professional ski patroller for over 20 years. He leaves untold myriads of Brighton Ski Resort memories and friends. His was a life well-lived.

        To all who have known and loved him, remember him on a deep-powder run, a golden day on the golf course, a Jeeping trail or a motorcycle ride on a glorious fall day.

        So plant a tree, donate to your favorite cause or to Partners in Care Hospice, Bend, who have been wonderful caretakers of this man of my heart.

        • I would have posted this up sooner but a new computer and phone would not let me log in here. Got a call that Frank’s widow was going to sell the Rubicon Unlimited so I thought I’d try to log in again and I got lucky.

          Frank’s FSJ project has been taken over by his son, but no details on that.

          RIP Frank.
