Obituary of Frank Courtright Miner
Frank Courtright Miner, 82, passed away peacefully on June 16, 2006. He was born in 1924 in Plainfield, NJ to parents Ann Louise Matlack Miner and Joshua Lewis Miner, Jr. He attended Hotchkiss School and Princeton University. He served in the Navy during World War II. In 1946, he married Ethelyn Heinrich and September would have marked their 60th anniversary. He managed several farms until 1953, when he and his family moved to Denver, where Frank sold irrigation equipment. In 1966, he began working for Coors Porcelain Company and later formed Frank Miner Realty Company, specializing in commercial real estate. Ever a farmer at heart, he supplied neighbors and friends with produce from his abundant garden. Frank was creative and enjoyed any projects involving building, refinishing, designing or cultivating. He loved animals. He enjoyed making wine, drinking it, and sharing it. Music was an important part of his life and he was accomplished on several instruments. Frank was intelligent, had strong opinions, and enjoyed spirited debates around the dinner table. He is survived by his wife, Lynne; his four children, Court, Clare, Henry and Anne; their spouses; eleven grandchildren; two great grandchildren; and his dog, Jasper. Preceded in death by his brothers Joshua L. Miner III and Thomas M. Miner. He will be missed by all.
