Frankie, Elaine's Boy

Frankie was 20 years old.

Frankie Carl DePrima. October 29, 1999 to April 17, 2020. Frankie died of an accidental overdose of Xanax laced with Fentanyl. Frankie had six times the lethal dose of Fentanyl in his system. I live in Fresno, California. My name is Elaine Hudson. Frankie was full of life. He cared about everyone’s feelings. He has the most beautiful smile and gorgeous baby blue eyes. He was the life of the party. He made everyone laugh. He's a prankster. He loved pulling jokes on me and all his friends and family. Frankie called me his "Mamacita" and I called him my "Snuckie Pookie".  I loved him big and huge with all my heart. I miss him so much. Frankie was always clapping his hands really loud. My heart is broken. I have never felt this type of pain before.
