Affectionately known as "French Fry." Farrakahn was a devoted father, son, brother, uncle, and cousin. He was a loving, caring, and family-oriented man who brought joy to those around him. In high school, he enjoyed playing football and dancing. Alson in his spare time, he found comfort in watching movies and playing video games.
