Frank “Frankie D” Deharde, Jr.

SANTA FE – Mr. Frank “Frankie D” Deharde, Jr. passed from this life at the age of 27 on August 1, 2019 in Houston.

Frankie D. was born on November 24, 1991 in Texas City to Frank and Kathleen Deharde, Sr.  As a middle child, Frankie grew up alongside his older sister and younger brother and always had his family laughing at his unique sense of humor.  He loved to fish and play guitar with his brother and was notorious for his free spirit.  He developed a passion for music, especially rock, as he became older.  The rocker lifestyle of rebellion fit Frankie to a T and he lived his life the way he wanted.  He immersed himself in history books in school and in his free time.  He enjoyed learning all things of the past.  Frankie was a one of a kind - he didn’t always see eye to eye with everyone, but those closest to him knew that he was a loving guy under his hard exterior, and he will be greatly missed.

Frankie D is survived by his parents, Frank Deharde, Sr. and Kathleen Deharde; brother, Brandon Deharde; sister, Patricia Zulch; grandmother, Mary Schilder; nephews, Ayden Gacki, Michael Hughes, III, Trenton Winebrenner; numerous aunts, uncles and cousins.

He is preceded in death by his grandfathers, George Deharde, Sr., Vernon Hock, Jr., grandmother and step-grandfather, Robin and Sam Lewis; uncles, George Deharde, Jr., Jimmy Buster Brown and Cory Lewis.

A celebration of Frankie D’s life will be Wednesday, August 7, 2019, at 11:00 a.m. in the chapel of Hayes Funeral Home, 10412 Highway 6, Hitchcock, TX, with Joni Kay Vitek officiating.
