Franklin Pinpin Villaluz

Frank Villaluz, 70, passed away on Saturday, July 6, 2013 in Norwalk, CA. He was born on February 11, 1943. Frank grew up in Manila, Philippines and moved to the U.S.A. a few years ago. He graduated with 3 Bachelors Degree: Geodetic Engineering; Bachelor of Science in Nursing; and Doctor of Medicine specializing in the discipline of Ophthalmology (EENT).

Frank was survived by his wife- Cora; his children- Kaye, Charmaine, Beatriz and Geo; son in law- Mark and grandson- Raphael.

Frank is one hard working father and a devoted husband. He was a calm man and kindness remained to be the fruit of his spirit. He was religious and he worshipped at the feet of honesty, honour and integrity. People talk about these values, but Frank lived them.

The measure of life well-lived is not in how much money one has or what material possessions they have accumulated, but rather through the lives they touched and the sorrow they leave behind. If the outpouring of sympathy on his loss is any indication, then we can proudly say that Frank’s indeed was a life well-lived.

Today is our chance to say “Thank you” for the way Frank touched our lives. Even though he was taken from us too soon, we must learn to be grateful that he came along and became part of us. Only now that you are gone do we truly appreciate what we are now without. And we want you to know that life without you is very difficult. We have all despaired at your loss over the past week and only the strength of the message you gave us through the years of giving and kindness has afforded us the strength to move forward.

We will miss him more than words can express. I say farewell today to a wonderful husband, father, uncle and friend. Goodbye Frank, until we meet again
