Frank (Francis) Patrick Waters

He leaves behind his wife of nearly forty-seven years, Sallie; children, Patricia, Kevin, and Michael; daughter-in-law, Lisa; grandchildren Matthew, David and Shannon Waters; sister and brother-in-law Chandler and Elizabeth (Boo) Stevens; as well as his special family, Ann, Julie and John Somogye. He also leaves behind a cousin, James Waters, of White Plains, New York and other family members in County Sligo, Ireland.
Frank earned his way in life with scholarships to LaSalle Academy in New York and Rensselaer Polytechnic University. While at Rensselaer he was a member of the Tau Beta Pi and Pi Tau Sigma Societies. He was elected Grand Marshal of the parade and was a star basketball player in the NIT play-offs in Madison Square Gardens. He also graduated from ROTC as a Lieutenant JG in the US Navy. He had a scholarship to Harvard University Business School where he graduated with distinction with an MBA as one of four Baker scholars.
He and his family moved to Houston, Texas in 1970 where he created his own incentive and marketing firm and in 1990 relocated to Galveston where he was closer to his beloved game of golf.
Frank will always be remembered for his wit and wisdom. He and his father before him had a story or joke for every occasion, most of them about the Irish. His children and their friends affectionately called him 'The Chief'. Frank would want donations in lieu of flowers be given either to the Texas Seaport Museum on Galveston Island on whose Board he served, to the Galveston Island Animal Shelter and Adoption Center, Sacred Heart Galveston Church or Saint Peter the Apostle Catholic Church in Galveston.
