Help Cover Dan Frankenhoff's Final Expenses

Dear friends, family, and kind-hearted strangers,

We are heartbroken to share that our beloved brother, Dan, recently passed away after a courageous battle for his life. Dan was a devoted father, a loving son, and a cherished brother. He leaves behind two beautiful children who now face a future without their father’s love and guidance.

Dan’s eldest child has a complex nervous system condition that requires specialized living assistance, and his youngest, just 5 years old, will need extra support to navigate life without their dad. With Dan's absence, extended care will be required, so our family has come together to ensure these kids have the stability, love, and care they deserve.

In the days leading up to Dan’s passing, our family spent significant resources trying to bring him from Cincinnati to Chicago for urgent medical care, hoping to save his life. Despite our best efforts, we couldn’t save Dan, and now several family members are left with overwhelming credit card bills in addition to funeral and caregiving expenses.

We are humbly asking for your help.

Your generosity will help us ease the cost and burden for:

• The transportation and medical expenses incurred while trying to save Dan.

• Supporting Dan’s children by contributing to their daily living and educational needs.

• Providing specialized care for his eldest child’s medical condition.

Dan was always the first to lend a helping hand, and we hope to honor his memory by ensuring his children are cared for and his family isn’t financially devastated by this tragedy.

No amount is too small, and every contribution makes a meaningful difference. If you’re unable to donate, we’d be so grateful if you could share this campaign with your network.

Thank you for helping us keep Dan’s memory alive through his children and for standing by our family in this incredibly difficult time.

With heartfelt gratitude,

The Frankenhoff family
