Efrain Torres, Sr., 75, of Fairfield Township, affectionately known as Frank, passed away on Saturday, April 19th, 2025 just one day shy of his 76th birthday at Inspira Medical Center in Vineland.
Many knew Frank from his years of service at Newcomb Medical Center in Vineland. Frank was a "jack of all trades" who enjoyed crafting piñatas, doll houses and even furniture by hand. He was not shy about sharing his love of Puerto Rico, music, dancing, singing and cooking for his family and friends. He also enjoyed going to the casinos with his nephew James, who he thought of as a bonus son. Frank was a loving and nurturing husband, father, brother, uncle and Papa.
He is survived by; his wife of 51 years and love of his life, Mary; their children, Angel DeJesus, Christy (Bob) Boon, Blanca (Matt) Helland, Frank (Nicoletta) Torres and Ruben Torres; fourteen grandchildren; and six (soon to be seven) great-grandchildren. He was preceded in death by; his parents; siblings; son, Ricky; and his infant grandsons, Justin and Ruben, Jr. who are now in his loving arms.
Lovingly Submitted, The Family
