Franklin D. Woon passed away peacefully at his home on May 12, 2021.

Frank was born on June 21, 1949 to Yoke Sun Woon (Chuck) and Betty
Woon.

He was preceded in death by his parents, and his brothers Yee Bon Woon
and Ben Woon. He is survived by his sisters Penny, Sue, Sandra,
Debbie, and their families.

Frank was born, raised, and lived his entire life in Yuma, AZ. He
graduated from Yuma High School in 1967 and attended the University of
Arizona for four years.

Frank's first love was bowling, and he wanted to become a professional
bowler. He enjoyed many activities, including golf, horse-racing, and
poker.

He worked most of his life in the agriculture industry as a set-off
and his last years as a forklift operator in the produce business for
Nunes Cooling.

Frank faithfully and lovingly kept his promise to his mother to keep
her garden growing every year after her death. Frank will be
remembered as a kind soul who always put his family and friends first
above himself.

Frank would like to thank all his friends in Mendota, Fresno, and Yuma
for their continued support and prayers. Per Frank's request, no
services will be held. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you
keep Frank in your thoughts. His final resting place will be at Desert
Lawn Memorial Park.
