Frank Gee passed away peacefully on the morning of Friday, August 2, 2019, with his loving life partner, Katie, by his side.
Frank was born on Saturday, February 3, 1934 in Wewoka, OK.
Frank was the second son of Leonard and Florence Gee.
Frank was raised in Odessa, TX, where he attended primary school. Frank then went on to Sam Houston University in Huntsville, TX, where he earned a business degree while on a baseball scholarship.
After college, he joined the United States Army as a First Lieutenant from November of 1956 until November of 1958.
Frank moved to Albuquerque where he called home most of his life. Frank was married to Annabelle, and together they raised three children, Heath, Rodney and Jeanetta.
Frank enjoyed all sports and was an avid golfer. Frank enjoyed participating in many golf tournaments, as well as supporting and attending the New Mexico Lobo basketball games. Frank worked with Kent Nolan construction before starting his own company in 1986, MCC Inc., a construction company specializing in underground projects that worked throughout New Mexico.
Frank and Katie spent his last seven years traveling and spending time in San Antonio, TX, with friends and family.
Frank is survived by his life partner, Katie, daughter, Gaylynn Gee and son, Heath Gee, step-children, Rodney Smith and Jeanetta Byrd, as well as his grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
Frank was preceded in death by his wife, Annabelle, parents, and his brother, Roger Gee.
We wish to thank his caregivers, Adriana, Barbara, Judy and Linda who helped Katie care for Frank in his home until the end. A very special thanks to Judy Rosenberg, his nurse and friend, who took very good care of him while he was at Rust Medical Center.
