| Obituary | May 20, 2002 | OBITUARY: William Franklin "Froggy" Rountrey, 87, of the 900 block of St. Lawrence Ave., received his greatest blessing Sunday, May 19, 2002, when he was taken home to be with his Heavenly Father. He touched the lives of many during his 87 years on Earth, setting examples for others as a Christian father and husband, as well as a highly respected professional, civic and church leader. He will be remembered by many as an honest and upright man with a gentle spirit and pure heart. He gave much more than he received, always putting the needs of others ahead of his own needs. He was born in Norfolk County and lived his entire life in the Oaklette area. He graduated from Portlock High School as class salutatorian and then from the Norfolk Division of William and Mary College, now ODU. He was the retired president of McCallum Inspection Company and founder and past president and CEO of McCallum Testing Laboratories. Froggy became active in numerous civic organizations beginning in the late 1930s. He served on the Central YMCA Board, spent 13 years as business manager and board member of the Norfolk Symphony and Civic Chorus, and served two consecutive years as president of the Norfolk Junior Chamber of Commerce during World War II, earning the title of ''The Man Who Gets Things Done.'' While in the Junior Chamber of Commerce he was also given the Key Man Award in 1941-1944 and was named Outstanding Man of the Year in the state in 1946. He helped to form and he served on the Norfolk Community Council. He was instrumental in establishing the Norfolk Civic Chorus, Miss Virginia Pageant, Tidewater Council of Natural History, Norfolk's first Boy's Club on Colonial Avenue (secretary), the Boy's Club on Azalea Garden Road, and he was instrumental in establishing food handling procedures for the Norfolk Health Department. He served on the board of the Virginia Wildlife Federation, was a past member of the Norfolk Rotary Club, and was a court-appointed member of the Chesapeake Zoning Appeals Board for more than 20 years. He was a former member and president of the Tidewater Council of Natural History, Virginia Society of Ornithology, Cape Henry Bird Club, and Rotary Club of Chesapeake. He was a life member of the American Wood Preservers Association, life member of the American Society for Testing and Materials, and active on committees of the American National Standards Institute. While serving as president of the Virginia Society of Ornithology, he was instrumental in the passing of legislation to protect birds of prey, which is still in effect today. He was one of the founders of the Cape Henry Bird Club and had been consistently active in the ornithological society's annual bird counts. Being a self-taught expert on bird identification, he was called on many times through the years to identify birds in all parts of the state. He was a lifelong member of Oaklette Methodist Church. He began teaching the Young Adult Class in 1947 and was the first and only full-time teacher of the Men's Bible Class for more than 50 years. During his lifetime, he held many administrative positions at Oaklette such as chairman of the Official Board, chairman of numerous commissions, church treasurer, trustee, and lay leader.
He was predeceased by his loving wife, Katharine Riggan Rountrey, by his parents, Claude Joseph and Florence Virginia Halstead Rountrey, by his sister, Florence R. Collier, and by his brothers, George W. Halstead and Claude J. Rountrey Jr. He leaves behind a daughter, Kaye R.
