Please help us with funeral and burial costs.

Hi, my name is Melinda Casillas. I am writing to ask for your help please. My loving husband Frank passed away unexpectedly yesterday, 02/29/24. Our hearts are so broken, and we were not prepared for this. No one is ever prepared to lose a loved one.

Frank always wore his heart on his sleeve. He would give the shirt off his back for people. He loved his family so much. Especially his beautiful son Javier. He loved his jobs and helping people/veterans at the DOL and the Peekskill Shelter. He especially loved all the people who entered his life over the years. Most of all, he loved serving for his country while he was in the Army and helping to shape his brothers and sisters in arms. Even after retiring from the military, he decided to keep helping veterans both with jobs or even those who needed a home. Frank was/ no is an amazing man, friend, and father. He loves his strong faith in God. He especially loves going and lecturing at St. Augustine's Church in Ossining. He was proud to be a part of the Knights at St. Augustine's. My families and I are asking from the bottom of our hearts for any donations towards giving him a proper funeral and burial for my beautiful husband, Frank J. Casillas III. Please feel free to share this link.

We will be truly grateful for anyone's thoughts and prayers, which will help us beyond words during this difficult loss.

Thank you for the texts, calls, prayers and God bless you all. Xoxo
