Memorial Fund for Pete Franke

To say that the death of my father is unexpected is the understatement of the century... In the early morning of September 6th, at the too young age of 58, Pete Franke passed away. Those who knew my father recognized him for his immense kindness and his fantastic sense of humor. He had a laugh that would fill up a room and a spirit that would too. I feel blessed for having had him as my dad, he was my rock and I am eternally grateful for everything he did for me. He is also survived by his girlfriend, Sharon, whom he loved fiercely. Also by his mother, Rosemarie, his two sisters, Monica and Rosie, and countless friends that I can't list here. He was so loved by so many. He will be sorely missed by everyone whose life he touched. 

Unfortunately, with an unexpected death comes unexpected expenses. I have set up this GoFundMe to help offset the cost of arrangements for my father. Anything someone wants to donate helps and my family and I appreciate it so, so much. 

Have a drink for my dad, it's what he would have wanted.
