Frank Joseph Stegmaier, age 43, St. Louis Park, MN, died unexpectedly November 18, 2023.
Frank was born to Joe and Cheryl Stegmaier in Mankato, MN. He received his bachelor’s degree in Graphic Communications Digital Design and a Marketing minor in 2003 from MSU Moorhead.
After graduating college, he flourished quickly in his profession with his amazing talent and hard work ethic. He was currently living in St. Louis Park and working as a Creative Director for Ovative Group in Minneapolis. Any team he was on would gladly tell you how talented and creative he was, but they would also say he was self-disciplined, organized, and a great mentor. He brought innovation and the ability to bring everything and everyone together with his incredible smile and laughter.
In addition to his professional achievements, Frank approached life with a genuine warmth and empathy that endeared him to countless friends and colleagues. His commitment to fostering a sense of belonging extended beyond design and initiatives—it was a lived experience that touched the lives of those fortunate enough to share in his journey. He shared his sparkle with anyone who needed or wanted it.
In 2017 Frank adopted his canine companion, Libbi. Frank had an eye for art and photography, an ear for all music and most recently a hobby of vintage shopping. He loved nature and always said that he may live in the “big city” but he grew up a country boy and will always be one at heart. He loved his family and spent time with them whenever he could.
He is survived by his father Joe, his mother Cheryl, his sister Amanda Stegmaier, his nephews Taylor (Paige) Beck, Joseph Stegmaier, his great nephew and niece Cooper and Selah Beck, many aunts, uncles, cousins and of course his faithful companion Libbi.
Frank is preceded in death by his grandparents Joseph and Catherine Stegmaier, Matthew and Elizabeth (Betty) Bisch, uncles and aunts Frank Stegmaier, Roger Bisch, Mickeal (Lynn) Bisch, Anne Frank and Anita Rothmeier, cousins Apryl Radel and Matthew Bisch.
