Frank Lara Menacho

Papa,
It's been about a year since you left us to sit with the angels. Not a day passes where I don't think of your warm smile, or feel your presence. You were an amazing man with a HUGE heart. You were the best papa I could have ever asked for and I miss you so much! Don't worry about us down here. We are all doing okay especially since we know you're up there in your lazy boy watching over us.
I LOVE YOU PAPA!

Frank,
You left a loving family and friends who miss your daily physical presence, but you are present in all our hearts and thoughts.
Love,

My dearest & wonderful Frank, It has been a year since you left us, I still fill the sadness as I did then. I know you told me not to cry but not a day goes by that I can't help but cry for the want of your presence. You will always have a special place in my heart. I know you are happy & in a good place. I look forward to the day we can be together again. I love you so very much 123 Betty

Menach, I can't believe it has been a year, and a year it has been. Thank you for all the times you have come to me to give me stregnth when I needed it. To feel a brush or see a squirrel and know you were there for me, gets me thru the day even sometimes the next minute. Thank you for watching over the kids, I know you were there for every one of Tony's Allstar Games and helped Lexie get back in to St Francis. I know you ride with Bre when she goes over 17 and watch over all of us as we...

Hi Betty, Frankie, & Christy - So sorry to hear of Frank's passing away. We were unable to attend his service but you all were and are in our hearts. May your memories of such a special man give you great comfort.
Much Love & Peace - Joe & Darlene Campagna

Dear Betty: I was so saddened to hear of Frank's passing. Although I haven't seen Frank since our Ford Motor Company days, I will always remember how much he was respected and liked by everyone. So many memories remain. God Bless you and the Menacho Family.

Papa,

Today was your service and boy did you draw a crowd. It was so nice to see all your friends and family come together to celebrate the wonderful man you were. It was all perfect, only one thing was missing. You. But I know you were up there in your lazy boy with a glass of red wine in your hand watching all of us recall our terrific memories. I know I sure have a lot. I will NEVER forget sitting on your lap in the living room and you singing to me, “Oh Papa, Oh Papa” and...

I'm sorry I am unable to make his service. I did however write something for him. I would like to share it with you. Here it is:


I knew you.
Merely days.
Merely minutes, just moments of time.
You were my favorite smile.
Your love, care and devotion for the love of your life was the kind of love you see nowdays only in movies.
You had it. You still have it.
I will always remember your smile, your love, your hugs.
I'll never forget the day...

I wish you peace and healing.

I would like to share a little story of how Frank helped me on two ooccasions.

After not playing golf for more then thirty years I started playing again four or five years ago at the small 9 hole course on Casserly Rd. in Watsonville. After a few months of playing there, I signed up to try to play "real golf" on an 18 hole course and was given an 8:15 starting time. I didn't know any of the SIR'S golfers. I had to ask around to find...
