We are so sad to announce the passing of Mr. Frank "Frankie" Gray Royce II, of Pooler, GA.  He died peacefully at the age of 49 on Wednesday, March 27, 2024, at Memorial Hospital.  Frank passed away surrounded by his loved ones after a long battle of illness.

Frank was born August 27, 1974, and graduated from Effingham High School in 1994.  He was a dedicated employee at Triangle S C LLC in Garden City, Ga for several years.

Frank was a true craftsman, finding joy in transforming raw wood into beautiful pieces through his woodworking skills. His artistic talents extended beyond the workshop, as he found joy in drawing and painting.  An avid outdoorsman, Frank also enjoyed fishing and camping and spending time with his four-legged best friend, Whiskey.  He was a true friend, a kind soul, and someone who always knew how to have a good time.

He will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and all who knew him.  Survived by his loving mother, Betty Strub (Pooler, GA) and his father, Daniel Royce, Sr. (Fairfax, VA); his devoted siblings, Vanessa, Dawn and Daniel "Danny" Royce III, Robert Strub (Tracy), Jeff Strub and cherished nieces and nephews.

Preceded in death by Robert "Bob" Strub (Stepfather), Grandfather, & Grandmother, Joe, and Polly Usry.

A celebration of life will be held in his honor on Saturday, March 30, 2024, at Amazing Grace Missionary Baptist Church.  5790 Ogeechee Rd, Savannah, GA 31405 at 1:00 pm.
