Lagunas Family

Donation protected
My name is Kim and I have been best friends with Deanna since we were four years old. Deanna met Franky when she was 14, she has spent her entire life with him. Deanna and Franky have raised 5 sons, and they are blessed with 8 grandchildren, with one more on the way. The family's life was forever changed on December 30, 2022. Franky went into cardiac arrest and did not receive medical assistance for at least 45 minutes, during this time he went without oxygen to the brain.

The family fought hard all week, trying everything possible to maintain his life, unfortunately, we could not save him. Franky had been declared brain dead, and yet we still fought to keep him on the ventilator (and were able to for an additional 48 hours) we lost him on January 5th in the afternoon.

Franky was only 55 years young, he was the main source of income for their family. There is no life insurance policy. The medical bills and funeral costs are above and beyond their means.

Please help us to plan a proper funeral for a man who is always there for his family.

Thank you very much
