We are heartbroken to share that my dad, Frank Mendoza, known to many as Frankie, passed away unexpectedly just a few days ago.

Frankie was so much more than a name. He was a devoted father to his four children, a loving husband to Arlene Mendoza, a caring son, a brother, and a true friend to so many. He had a way of making people feel seen, supported, and loved. His presence brought comfort, laughter, and strength to everyone around him.

This loss has shaken our family to its core. What makes it even harder is knowing that his passing was not his fault, and it came far too soon. We were not prepared for this, emotionally or financially.

Unfortunately, Frankie did not have life insurance, and time is not on our side. We are now faced with the urgent need to cover funeral and burial expenses so we can lay him to rest with the dignity and love he deserves.

We are asking for any support you can give, no amount is too small. If you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing this with others. Every bit of help brings us closer to giving Frankie the proper farewell he deserves.

Thank you and please keep our family in your thoughts and prayers during this incredibly difficult time.
