(WTXL) — UPS drivers across the country will be stopping at 5 p.m. Monday to honor Frank Ordonez, the driver killed in Florida last week.

According to Teamsters Local 769, Ordonez's UPS union chapter, UPS drivers across the country will observe a moment of silence at 5 p.m. eastern time on Monday.

The drivers will be parking their trucks and turning on their four-way flashers in a sign of solidarity with the fallen UPS worker.

Ordonez, a 27-year-old father of two young girls, was "outgoing and happy," his brother, Roy Ordonez, told CNN. "You never knew when he was sad."
