Frank Ramirez Natal Jr., 78, of San Marcos, Texas, passed away peacefully on July 2, 2025, surrounded by his loved ones. A man of unwavering faith and boundless love, Frank lived a life devoted to God, family, and service.
Born on May 27, 1947, Frank proudly served his country in the United States Army during the Vietnam War. After his service, he became deeply rooted in the San Marcos community, actively worshiping at Sinai Pentecostal Church and Divine Intervention Ministries.

As a devoted husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, brother, and friend, he leaves behind a legacy of love and service that will never be forgotten.
