Frank R. Andrick

Frank Ray Andrick, 51, passed away on December 9, 2020. Born April 28, 1969 Frank was a lifelong resident of Columbus, Ohio.
Frank was preceded in death by father Dan Harden and beloved grandmother Anna Guyer.
Frank is survived by his mother Kathy Harden, brothers Phillip (Shannon) Andrick, Thomas (Tiffany) Andrick and sister Katie (Keith) Brobst. Frank was a proud uncle to Phillip (Kaitlyn), Tyler (Haleigh), Brooke (Zach), Caden (Sidney), Tessa, Jordan (Alexis), Peyton, Cailyn and Eli and a great-uncle to Joel, Henry and Colson. Frank will be truly missed by a host of aunts, uncles, cousins, family and friends.
Frank was an avid sports fan from a young age. He was a valued part of the Brigg H.S. basketball team where he served as their manager and made lifelong friends. He loved the Ohio State Buckeyes, Miami Dolphins, Cincinnati Red, Pittsburgh Penguins and the Boston Celtics. He loved watching his favorite WWE wrestlers and listening to music. Frank enjoyed all of this the most when he was sharing it with his family and friends.
Frank was truly a survivor. Diagnosed with type 1 diabetes as a toddler he battled complications of the disease most of his adult life and beat the odds again and again. From multiple organ transplants to cancer he was a fighter and an inspiration to his doctors, nurses and family. While deeply saddened at the loss of Frank there is joy and victory that he overcame so many obstacles to live his 51 years.
