In Memory of Ken Casarez: A Life Filled with Love&Sacrifice

We are heartbroken to share the news that our beloved Ken Casarez has passed away after a courageous battle with an aggressive form of cancer. Ken was more than just a family member—he was the rock of our family, a loving son, brother, father, and grandfather. His unwavering love and dedication to his family were the guiding lights of his life.

Ken grew up with a profound love for the ocean, finding peace and joy in the waves during his youthful days. It was this passion that led him to become a lifeguard, dedicating himself to saving lives and protecting the shores they loved so much. His selflessness and courage were evident not only on the beach but throughout his entire life.

Ken proudly served his country in the military, embodying honor and commitment. During this time, he also nurtured the love of a lifetime, marrying his high school sweetheart. Together, they shared nearly 60 beautiful years of marriage—a testament to their enduring love and partnership.

Ken was a fighter in every sense of the word. He overcame a severe heart surgery, defying the odds with his resilience and determination to continue living life to its fullest. He cherished every moment he had with his wife and family, always offering his warmth, wisdom, and unwavering support.

When Ken was diagnosed with cancer, he faced this new challenge with the same strength and bravery that defined him. Despite the physical pain and emotional toll, he remained a pillar of strength for his loved ones. In his final moments, Ken was surrounded by his family, just as he had always been there for them.

We humbly ask for your support in helping us cover the medical expenses and memorial costs that remain. Your contributions will not only ease the financial burden but also honor Ken’s legacy and the incredible life he lived.

Thank you for being a part of his story and for helping us honor a man who gave so much to others. Your kindness and generosity mean the world to our family during this difficult time.
