On April 18, 2026, my nieces and nephews: Aubriella, Frankie Jr, Ariana, and Zachary, lost their father, Frankie Silva — a man who meant everything to them. He wasn’t just their dad, he was their protector, their provider, their comfort, and their home. If you knew Frankie, you knew his kids were his whole world and meant everything to him.

Watching them face this kind of heartbreak is something no child should ever have to go through. Their lives have changed forever, and right now they need all the love, support, and stability we can give them.

I’ve created this GoFundMe to help ease the burden during this devastating time. The funds will go towards assisting with funeral costs, and most importantly, to support his children as they navigate life without him — helping with their immediate needs and giving them some sense of security during such an uncertain time.

If you’re able to donate, no matter how small, it would mean more than words can express. And if you’re not in a position to give, please consider sharing. Every bit of support, every prayer, every share truly matters.

Thank you for helping us show these children they are not alone.
