Raul Fregoso

Raul Fregoso, a native of Las Lomas passed away on Friday night Sept. 8, 2023. He was surrounded by his family and friends.

The son of immigrant parents, he worked for the City of Santa Cruz and Coastwide Environmental. He was a hard worker, often working two jobs at the same time.

Raul was a vibrant, carefree father of three. He loved his family and enjoyed having family BBQs, bonfires and playing horseshoes. He loved the Raiders and he loved going camping at Don Pedro Lake. He was a coach to his kids' little league teams. He was a kind-hearted man, who would give you the shirt off his back if you needed it. He will be surely missed.

He is survived by his siblings Fernando, Pedro Jr., Jose and Alma Fregoso; and 5 grandkids Damian, Leila, Zariah, Giovanni and Adalie Fregoso. He also leaves behind his two oldest sons Gabriel and Ulysses Fregoso. And he is now reunited with his youngest son Mauro and parents in heaven.

We will remember his Colgate smile and the endless memories he left us.

A visitation will be held at Mehl's Colonial Chapel on Thursday, September 21 from 5:00 pm - 9:00pm, with the rosary beginning at 7:00pm. Mass of Christian burial will be held at Our Lady Help of Christians Church in Watsonville on Friday, September 22 at 10:00am.

Mehl's Colonial Chapel was entrusted with the funeral arrangements.
