Obituary
Frank Mason Warman, born on June 14, 1949, in Whitby Ontario passed unexpectedly while at home on Tuesday, May 7, 2024. Frank graduated Durham College as a Civil Engineer Technician and worked in both the private and public sectors. He married Ann Marie DiGuiseppe on April 23, 1988, and lived in Oshawa where Frank was actively involved with Loyal Order of the Moose and Basset Rescue communities. He is survived by his daughter Jeanette Ann DiGuiseppe (Thomas Pheasant), granddaughters Claire Elizabeth, Natalie Renee, and Anna Marie, brother Fred Warman (Joanne Warman), his nephew Peter Mason Warman (Nadia Warman), and great nephew Palmo Mason Warman. In 2017, Frank and Ann elected to move to Sarnia Ontario where Frank found his true passion as a dog handler to Miss Molly Mae Warman, a certified emotional support dog. Together, they worked for St. John’s Ambulance volunteer program and visited various nursing homes and schools. Frank loved his Molly Mae and loved discussing his volunteer work. During one of his daily trips to the river front, a school student recognized Molly Mae and Frank was proud of the impact he was making to those he visited. After 36 years of marriage, he passed with Ann by his side in the sanctuary of their backyard.

My deepest condolences and prayers to you, Ann, Jeanette, Fred and your families on your sudden and dear loss of your beloved husband, father and brother, Frank. Frank was a wonderful caring soul who touched all with his love and caring nature to all who meet him; I always enjoyed our fellowship chats whenever he was at Christ Lutheran Church, Sarnia with Ann or he was passing by in my workplace drive thru lane getting his cup of coffee. Frank will be deeply missed by all who knew him and all the souls that he touched with his loving care & grace. May God bless his soul and provide His comfort and love to his families and friends that mourn his passing.

Dear Ann, Molly and family, I feel blessed to have met Frank and Molly. The therapy visits I attended with Frank over the last few months have taught me how to be a therapy dog handler. Koda and I will miss meeting Frank and Molly at Great Lakes Secondary School and Rebound to share our dogs together. I will always remember his sincere kindness. My deepest condolences, Kim Wright and Koda.
