In his memory, Western has opened an equity-based graduate scholarship. Please consider supporting his final initiative if you are able: www.westernconnect.ca/beier ; thank you for all the time you spent and laughs you shared with him. We love and miss him so much already. - The Beiers

Hi all. Frank passed peacefully with the love of his family on July 18, 2025 in London, ON. He was a wonderful human being who shared much of his life with you. We could not have asked for a better father, grandfather, friend, colleague, or mentor. 1/

Another update although not much has changed. Still expected to have 'a few months'. Oncologist feels like there is nothing he can do any more but we will try to keep me as comfortable & productive as possible with palliative care, oxygen, wheelchair etc.

#Sunfest was always one of my favourite things in #Ldnont. This is very likely the last time I can be there. All the more thankful I am to the kids for taking me there in my new fancy wheels! PS5 from Naples playing here

Lots of visitors these days! Former PhD students and postdocs coming by from in and out of town. A sad occasion but great to see them all! Oh those memories.... sorry for the poor selfie skills....

Went to vote early in the 🇨🇦 elections on the way to meeting friends for some beers. All within 10 minutes of walk. One of the advantages of living in downtown #ldnont

Little distraction from the doom - at the London Lightning game against Rochester with some of the fam. No booing of the US anthem here, interestingly.
