Longtime Cape resident; avid sailor
Hyannis - Stephen H. Frostholm Sr., 61, died at home in the care of Hospice & Palliative Care of Cape Cod, on Jan. 3, 2007, after a courageous year-long battle with pancreatic cancer.
Steve was raised in West Yarmouth and graduated from Dennis-Yarmouth High School. He was employed by ComElectric for 35 years, where he served a term as president of Local 339 of the Brotherhood of Utility Workers of New England.
When he retired, he became a first mate and later captain with Hy-Line Cruises. He was also employed by the Forbes Family Trust as a captain, and worked for Lawrence Lynch, operating their launch between Falmouth and Martha's Vineyard.
He was an avid lifelong sailor, and was the chair of the one-design committee at the Hyannis Yacht Club. He was a strong supporter of one-design sailboats, and served a term as president of the New England Beetle Cat Boat Association.
He was an active member of the Federated Church of Hyannis, serving on many committees, teaching Sunday school, co-leading the youth group, and ultimately serving as president of the church.
