| Note | Frank Joseph Giera (Joe) passed away on Feb 25, 2016. His untimely death was sudden and a shock to many people, even those who had not heard from him in years. He had a remarkable presence and touched many, many lives in such amazing ways. He was always present and reassuring.
Joe owned and operated River Country Rafting with his life partner Becca, in Happy Camp. He was a worldclass river guide with a deep knowledge of the Klamath River and was always willing to share its richness with anyone, anytime. His love of moving water started in his hometown of Huntington Beach, ripping the waves at the age of 13. Joe was a skilled journeyman drywaller and worked on many fine homes in Humboldt County. He will also be remembered as the phenomenal rhythm guitarist in Nuns With Guns as well as Arcata’s old school punk band, the Yowling Zygotes.
Joe is survived by his siblings, LesAnn, Laura, Paul and Andy. He will be missed tremendously and will be remembered as a vibrant, playful, compassionate soul. His close family and friends will hold a private memorial float on the Klamath River this spring. Please take some time to honor Joe in the special way he had meaning for you.
Thank you all for your heartfelt prayers and blessings.
