                         Tuesday, June 13, 2017

  Mr. RYAN of Ohio. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the life of 
Frank J. Hoso, Jr. who passed away on Friday, June 2, 2017. He was 
surrounded by his loving family. He leaves his wife Sylvia and 9 
children behind.
  Frank was born on May 17, 1934 in Niles, Ohio, and he remained a 
lifelong resident of Niles. Frank was a 1952 graduate of St. Mary's 
High School and then continued on to pursue a Bachelor Degree in 
Education at Kent State University. Frank also courageously served our 
country in the United States Army Reserves. After leaving the Army, he 
went on to earn a Master Degree in Education in 1968 from Westminster 
College, and he took additional Post Graduate classes at Youngstown 
State University. Frank was married to wife Sylvia for 57 years, and 
together they shared 12 adoring children.
  Frank worked as a teacher for much of his career. He began teaching 
junior high at Saints Peter and Paul School from 1959-1969 before going 
on to teach for 39 years at Warren City Schools. Even after he retired 
as a full-time teacher, he continued to assist as a substitute teacher.
  Frank was also an active member of his community. He served with the 
United States Army Reserves for five years before being honorably 
discharged on November 20, 1962 with the rank of Corporal. 
Additionally, he was a faithful member of Saints Peter and Paul 
Byzantine Catholic Church in Warren, where he tended to the parish 
cemetery.
  I extend my deepest condolences to Frank's family and friends. He was 
a wonderful man who leaves behind an extensive legacy. He will be 
dearly missed.
