Franco, my older brother from Venezuela. The distance was our destiny.You were always in our hearts , in the hearts of the Damasio´s Family who are spread all over the world. You played soccer at Calasanz school and had a leadership role at Maria Montessori school as a student. You left Venezuela at 17 (I was 9 years old) but every come back to visit was a wonderful time to enjoy your stories about the times at KU University. Franco, you made us proud with your long and consistent effort to become a Chemical Engineer , you did it, and great projects were building in your head. You worked for the top Oil Venezuelan industry and you were ready to take your ideas to the rest of the world. But you decided and you wanted to help people so you started another difficult and challenging path to become a Doctor. What a way to help people. Your dedication and passion to give people a hope of life was tireless. The Damasio´s family has been and will always be proud of your professional and human achievements. You formed a great family, bringing to life 3 precious and caring children together with your beloved Shannaz an amazing woman who never lost the faith and stayed by your side every minute and second since married. Thanks a lot Shannaz on behalf of the Damasio´s.
Franco, God called you to continue the brilliant work in another level and from heaven keep your loved ones protected on this earth. Venezuela gave birth and USA adopted a wonderful human being for 67 years and now your memories will not be forgotten that easy. Thank you for existing in our lives.
