Our hearts are broken as we say goodbye to Juan Serrato — a beloved teacher, son, brother, uncle, brother-in-law, mentor, and friend who dedicated over 20 years of his life to educating and inspiring others. Juan was the kind of person who showed up for everyone. As a teacher, he impacted countless students with his patience, kindness, and dedication. To his family and friends, he was a source of love, wisdom, laughter, and unwavering support. He had a deep love for women’s soccer, writing books, and encouraging others to pursue their passions and dreams. His presence brought comfort and inspiration to so many lives.

After a long battle with stage 4 kidney failure, Juan tragically passed away from cardiac arrest and kidney failure. His loss has left an unimaginable void in the hearts of everyone who knew and loved him. During this incredibly difficult time, we are asking for help to cover funeral and memorial expenses. Any donation — no matter the amount — will help ease the financial burden on the family as they grieve this devastating loss. If you are unable to donate, please consider sharing this fundraiser and keeping Juan’s family in your prayers. Thank you for helping us honor Juan’s life, legacy, and the love he gave so freely to others.
