FRANCISCO P. VALEDA Jr.

I'm reading all these messages and know you were loved by many, but not as much as I love you. I miss your smile, our talks, your love, your positive attitude, going to the beach together and coming home to you every day. My life will never be the same without you in it. Love and Miss You Baby!!

Amilita and Gil, So many great memories of Frank. He will be missed. I am so sorry for your loss. big hugs!

Frank, You started handling my mother, Virginia Dean insurance many years ago. You always had great things to say about my mother who had passed away 6 years ago. We both have been going through some medical problems but every time we talked you would remind me that we were survivors. I feel that we have established a great friendship through the years. To your family we send our regrets but thank them for sharing you with us. Your friend forever Wendell and Mary Dean.

Frankie! Why did you have to leave so soon? I will always remember our times in Ocean City together and our weekends out with you and Ellen, our only friends :(. You know no one will be buying me donuts like you did Frank. I will miss you Frank and I hope you are up there dancing every night!

Frank was one of my brother Lamarr Jackson's first friends when we moved into Silver Spring many years ago and we attended Sligo Jr. High School, then Northwood High. Lamarr was not an outgoing or popular person before then, but Frank helped him to learn the ropes rather quickly. They were close then and remained close throughout the years. A kinship evolved and they became brothers from then on and Frank became part of our family. It is very sad to know that Frank is not with us anymore, but...

Frankie, you were always a joy to work with, you will be missed. My thoughts & prayers are with your family.

Our sincere sympathy to the family on your loss. RIP Frank you will be missed.
Peter and Jamie Brock

Frankie - Words can't describe what a tremendous loss this is to the V.W. Brown family and to me personally. I will miss you buzzing me and sharing your stories. You were always so positive and upbeat and your laughter was contagious. You are missed by many. I am so thankful that I was fortunate to know you my friend. RIP Frankie!

Growing up across the street from the Valeda's has given me lifelong friends and fond memories, too many to count. Frank, was always so good to me. Like a great older brother, driving us kids to Ocean City for the day; Making sure my brother and I were part of sending the family and our dear friends Ray & Ditas off to the Philippines @ Dullus; including me in all those fabulous Motown dance parties (when I was probably too young to be there), solidifying my love of the music. Always with a...
