It is with great sadness that the family of Frank H. Bode announces his passing on August 31st, 2024. Frank was the cherished husband of Eileen (Murphy) Bode, loving father of Frank C. Bode, Kathleen (Daniel) Sachs, and Jennifer (Andrew) Muchoney. He is also the devoted grandpa to Emma and Cassandra Muchoney. Frank is preceded in death by his parents Frank C. and Alena B. Bode. Frank’s greatest joy in life was caring for his granddaughters. Ever the sports fan, Frank was a life-long Chicago White Sox fan. He also cheered on the Chicago Bears, Notre Dame Fighting Irish, and Chicago Bulls. Finally, Frank was an avid reader and enjoyed reading (and arguing) about history. Frank was a former employee of Jewel Foods, Libby, McNeal & Libby, Keebler Cookies, Delicious Foods, and Klein Tools.
