Help Laura After Losing Her Husband

Frank Sepulveres is survived by his wife, Laura, and two sons, Paul and Joe. His family also includes his mother, two brothers, and a sister. He is originally from New Jersey, and relocated to Florida 30 years ago. He met Laura 20 years ago while they were both working at Publix. Frank and Laura were married 15 years. They have twin boys who were born in 2004, who are now seniors in high school.

Family was extremely important to Frank. Frank enjoyed computers and working outside. He took pride in taking care of his home and yard. He was a Dallas Cowboys fan and enjoyed Dave Matthews Band. He was known for his generosity, to the point where he would give you the shirt off his back.

Laura was diagnosed with 3rd stage melanoma in 2009. She spent about a year in treatment with chemo and recovered the end of 2010. Ever since Laura's fight with cancer, they have struggled to get back on track financially.

Recently Frank developed COVID-19 and pneumonia as well. He was admitted to the hospital and immediately went into ICU. He spent 13 days in intensive care and then tragically passed away.

Frank had been very excited to see his boys senior year and their high school graduation. Unfortunately, his death occurred on the very first day of Paul of Joe's senior year. This year should have been one of joy, but instead begins with sadness.

Frank had a small life insurance policy, but his medical expenses will be very large. This includes a $6500 insurance deductible and 10% of all other medical costs associated with his 13 days in ICU.

Laura is now left with two teenage sons to raise, a mortgage payment on her house, and 1/2 of the income they were living on before.

Many of you are asking what you can do to help. Should you choose to, this is a concrete way you can assist her in moving forward.

Thank you so much.
