Frank, born on April 19, 1947, in Port Washington Wisconsin, the son of Leo and Luella (nee Stern) Wellenstein. Growing up in Grafton, Frank was a proud graduate of Grafton High School's class of 1965. Following his graduation, he bravely served his country in the United States Army.

Frank was a man who found joy in the simple things in life. His time spent with his family, especially his grandchildren, was very precious to him. He loved spending his days playing golf, working around his house and yard, and always kept himself busy with projects.
