Frank Fifo.
The longtime luminary and chocolate maker died Jan. 22, in Ely, at the age of 84.
Frank and his wife, Retta, âwere an important couple in the festival as it grew,â said Carol Orban, secretary of the Ely Winter Festival Board.
She and festival coordinator, Shauna Vega, took a few moments recently â as the current Ely Winter Festival is underway â to remember the man appropriately known as âthe luminary guy.â
Every year, Frank and Retta made dozens of ice luminaries to light the pathway at Whiteside Park and to illuminate the giant snow sculptures carved for the festival.
The glowing ice candles, which flicker against the frozen sculptures at night as people stroll through the park, is âone of the most beautiful partsâ of the festivities, Vega said.
