FRANK TUTTLE, 81
Frank Tuttle, 81, of Sheridan, passed away on Wednesday, Feb. 28, 2018, at Spectrum
Health Butterworth in Grand Rapids.

Never short on words, Frank would light up any room he entered or brighten up your
day with his endless jokes and stories. His laugh was contagious, his smile infectious
and his love of life very apparent.

Frank loved his family very much and is survived by his wife of 61 years, Shirley;
son Steve (Essie) Tuttle of San Francisco, California; grandson, Dave (Tiffany) Bingaman of
Sheridan; great-grandchildren, Tara Williams, Austin Williams, Lauren Williams and
great-great-granddaughter, Liberty Winters.

Preceding Frank in death are his parents, Donald & Esther (Coulson) Tuttle; daughter
Judy Bingaman and grandson, Travis Bingaman.

Born in Ionia, Frank never ventured too far from home. He worked as a Corrections
Officer in both Ionia and Carson city, He also owned and operated Tuttle Sports Shop with
Shirley for nearly 30 years. When he wasn't working, Frank loved to research history through
family genealogy and shop for antiques. He was affectionately referred to as an
antique hound by his family and was always determined to bargain his way to the best
possible deal. He was also a regular at the local coffee shops and will be deeply missed by
everyone who knew and loved him. Franks family would like to extend special thanks to Rory
and Renae Osmolinski and Tennille Sassano for everything they have done for him and care
they provided.

at the Simpson Family Funeral Home in Sheridan.

memorial Scholarship fund and envelopes will be available at both the funeral home and
