Dear Monrovia Unified Community,
It is with deep sorrow that we share the news that one of our own, Edvin F. Franco, a proud graduate of Monrovia High School’s Class of 2018, was among the four U.S. soldiers who lost their lives last week in Lithuania while conducting a training mission.
Edvin’s dedication to service and his sacrifice for our country will never be forgotten. Our thoughts are with his family, friends, and all who knew him, as well as with the loved ones of the other fallen soldiers.
On behalf of the Monrovia Unified School District, we extend our deepest condolences and gratitude for their service. During this difficult time, we stand with Edvin’s family and honor his memory.
Sincerely,
Dr. Paula Hart Rodas
Superintendent, Monrovia Unified School District
