Hello family and friends,

I regret to say that my brother, Frank Diaz Medel of Saginaw, Michigan, has passed away at the age of 60. I loved my brother with all my heart even though he was never really around much for the past 25 years or so. Some of you may know, he lived a transient lifestyle, keeping most of himself from us. But about 3 years ago, he "reappeared" in Saginaw, allowing us to communicate with him briefly before his passing. Although he died on the 10th of September, we only found out about it yesterday as he hadn't listed any of us as his next of kin; a mystery I'll never resolve. It's hard preparing for a death when you have almost no contact with a person, but that's where I find myself.

I'm asking my family and friends to help monetarily if you can... and not worry if you can't. Plans are still being arranged but we will most likely have him cremated followed by an intimate memorial/gathering somewhere. Thank you all for taking the time to read this and for your support.
