Frank Joseph Bach

April 23, 1950 - December 5, 2021

Frank Joseph Bach passed away December 5, 2021 after a short battle with cancer. Frank was born April 23, 1950 in O’Dell, Nebraska to Joseph and Laurine Bach. He grew up on the family farm where he honed his farming and ranching skills. He loved to tell stories about his rambunctious youth with his buddies. At 26 he married and adopted her two children and they had a daughter, Lindee. During that time, he worked in Wyoming on various farms. After their divorce, he moved to Buffalo, Wyoming. A job offer took him to Glendive, Montana where he managed an H & R Block office in Glendive, Glasgow and Sidney. It was in Glendive that he met the love of his life, Kathie Henderson. Frank and Kathie were married July 18, 1981. From this union their three children, Julie, Joe, and Jessica, were born. At that time, he became self-employed at various occupations. He was well known in the community, whether he cleaned their carpets, striped a vehicle or hauled hot shot for them. He was always willing to help out on a ranch or farm, often delivering them farm equipment he found at an auction. Frank was seen many times wearing a suit and tie sharing good news of God’s kingdom with everyone he considered his neighbor. After learning about the beautiful promises of Jehovah God from Jehovah’s Witnesses, with the help of his dear friend, Don Miller, Frank dedicated his life to serving his heavenly Father. He was baptized as one of Jehovah’s Witnesses on June 10, 1981 and was a loyal servant of his God, Jehovah until his death. Frank epitomized one of his favorite Bible verses: “...’There is more happiness in giving than there is in receiving.’” (Acts 20:35) Family and friends define Frank as generous, loving, kind and caring, hardworking and always going the extra mile for friend or stranger. Surviving to miss his companionship are his wife, Kathie and their children, Julie (Larry) Salazar and their daughters Sloane and Emelia; Joe (Kim) Bach and their daughters Kendal and Kennedy and son Jameson; and Jessica (Tucker) Wimmelman. He is also survived by his sister Maryann (Jerry) Mason and two nieces. Frank will also be missed by his spiritual brothers and sisters.
