With heavy hearts we share the sudden and unexpected passing of our dearest boy, Arsen Butayev, on Saturday June 14, 2025, at just 19 years of age. Arsen was a beloved son, brother, grandson, and nephew; always surround by his cousins and friends.

Arsen was quiet and kind soul and cared deeply for those close to him. A young man of a few worlds but the biggest heart. Arsen was a dedicated college student working hard towards his career dream. On his free time he loved playing his guitar, hiking with his cousins and taking his car on a spin. He was well known in his church where he served and went to missionary trips. He left us all too soon.

We are starting this fund to help Arsen's loved ones cover funeral expenses and any other immediate costs during this incredibly difficult time. No family should worry about finances while grieving.

Thank you for your support, compassion, and prayers during this painful time.

With love and gratitude,

Butayev and Ganchenko Family.
