My brother Lotez, known by many as Tez, was an outgoing and compassionate person. Many knew him for his captivating smile and genuine spirit. He had a warmth that drew people to him, making him loved by many. He never met a stranger and showed the same love to everyone he met.

Tez lost his long battle with depression on Wednesday night, June 15th. A courageous survivor of trauma, Tez was able to find small doses of freedom in the outdoors and was a proud member of the Outdoor Afro leadership team. 

He is missed and remembered by his wife and partner, Ashley Pasquariello, his family, and many friends who he considered family. If you would like to help ease the financial burden associated with his memorial, please contribute in his memory.

On behalf of his family, thank you for your kind regards, prayers, and considerations.
