Francisco Alfaro Memorial Fundraiser

"Francisco M. Alfaro, 66, died on the 16th of November at his home in East Los Angeles from sudden cardiac arrest. His funeral service will be held on November 25 & 26 at St Anne’s Parish in Elysian Valley.


Mr. Alfaro was born on October 14, 1952 in Jiquilpan, Mexico to Jose and Ignacia Alfaro along with his siblings Miguel and Elena. After moving to Los Angeles in 1976, Francisco continued to develop his career in sales and also devoted himself to the church choir. His high spirit and radio-voice defined him and is what attracted his future wife. 


He met Cathy in the Winter of 1981 through the church choir and together, they had four children: Evelyn, Wendy, Anthony, and David. He took pride in his family, never shied away from the spot light during family gatherings and embraced his role as an entertainer. He would always imitate Mexican comedian, Resortes, and loved to lift the spirits of those around him with his great sense of humor to all ages. 


Francisco not only dedicated himself to his wife and four children but also was best known for spreading his faith. He was known for his youthful spirit and for supporting others in moments of need. Though we all remember him under different names: Francisco, Fufu, Panchito, Frank, Kiko, Hugo, he will always be remembered for spreading joy to all."
