My father, Frank Stanich, was a man who brought people together through his love of cooking. He was especially known for his spaghetti, but he made so much more for the people around him, especially his employees at the warehouse he ran on a military base. He had just retired, and while I don’t know all the details of his time there, I know he cared deeply for those he worked with and always made sure everyone felt included and supported.

Frank’s wishes were to be cremated, and I’m doing my best to honor that. As his child, I’m now taking on the responsibility of his properties and the taxes that are due. It’s a lot to manage, and I’m reaching out for help to cover these expenses so I can focus on honoring his memory and taking care of what he left behind.

He loved his grandkids deeply, and I want to make sure I can build on the foundation he created for our family. Any support will go directly toward his final arrangements and the costs that come with managing his estate. Thank you for helping me honor my father and continue his legacy for the next generation.
