Frank James Galgano, 52, of Paragould, passed away tragically on Wednesday, October 22, 2025, due to a motorcycle accident. He was born on December 1, 1972, in Wynne, Arkansas.

Frank, affectionately known as "Fubar" to his friends and fellow motorcycle enthusiasts, led a life that embraced both adventure and camaraderie. A devoted husband to his beloved wife, Sandra Wiriaatmadja Galgano, and a cherished father to his children-Michael Miller, Maya Miller, Michael Turner, Tia Tiana Wiriaatmadja, Ryan Miller, Bryan Miller, Tanya Miller, and Delbert Miller-Frank leaves behind a family that adored him deeply. He is also survived by his mother, Veronica Vito; his nephew, Linklin Barrett; his niece, Brooklyn Barrett; 20 grandchildren; and too many friends to mention. He was preceded in death by his father, Gary Barrett, and brother, Dustin Barrett.

A skilled welder by trade, Fubar dedicated some years to the manufacturing industry. However, it was his passions outside of work that truly defined him. Fubar took great joy in riding his motorcycle, feeling most alive on the open road. An enthusiastic member of the Independence Motorcycle Club, Patriots Motorcycle Club, and Ozark Riders Motorcycle Club, he found community and brotherhood among fellow riders.

In addition to his love for motorcycles, Fubar had a deep appreciation for the outdoors. He cherished moments spent in nature, whether he was tending to his garden filled with vibrant flowers or enjoying the serene beauty of the ocean. His love for his dogs was evident, as they were considered an integral part of his family. Fubar was known for his generous spirit, always ready to lend a helping hand to friends in need, showcasing his kind-hearted nature.

A visitation in honor of Fubar will be held on Tuesday, October 28, 2025, from 1-2 PM at Heath Funeral Home. Following the visitation, Fubar will be cremated, allowing for his spirit to carry on in the hearts of those who loved him.

Frank James "Fubar" Galgano will be remembered not only for his warmth and generosity but also for the unforgettable moments shared with family and friends. His legacy will continue to live on in the cherished memories of his loved ones.
