I remember the first time meeting Franco as a little girl. It was at my Grandma and Grandpa’s house. Franco was playing with all of us kids in the front yard and letting all of jump on him and ride his back. And when it was time to go, I remember wanting to play with him more being bummed he had to go. And that feeling just continued throughout our time together. Any time there was a family function or the family reunion coming up, I always checked with him because I knew it would be that much better with his presence.
I’m grateful for the fact that so many Sundays when I was younger, Franco, Maricela, and Emmanuel were at our house on Tangerine dancing. Nez, Nene, Jr and me would move all the furniture in the front room the moment we saw Franco pull up with Maricela in the front seat and Emmanuel in the back. Franco always had his giant CD case. And we just laughed and danced for hours. Truly one of the greatest times of my life. I’m very thankful to have all those memories. I’m so grateful to have Franco and Maricela as cousins. And I can’t wait to dance with them again.
Nothing but great memories of you Lil cousin. Thankful for our parents for always visiting each others homes so we could all hang out playing tag, laughing, telling jokes and climbing on top of the shed to pump our fists to make the semi trucks on the freeway behind my parents house honk their horns. Happy to have the memories of you choreographing so many of the family quinceañeras including my daughters. So glad we got to spend that time together. You’re already missed so much. Thank you for visiting me in my dreams the other night. Rest in Paradise, Franco. Until we meet again. I love you.
Franco you are truly missed my friend. I was your neighbor for a short time. The day you came and gave me some plants and some personal items you said not to worry I got this with a big smile on your face. That day you also said God is going to take care of everything. I know you at peace with that big old smile like the day I met you in the late 90 s. Fly high my Franco until we meet again. My prayers to your family and Friends.
