Tragic Loss - Aranda Funeral Fund

On Saturday, October 29, 2016 Gustavo Aranda-Castaneda, 32, had an accident while riding a quad vehicle in the Dumont Dunes Recreation area in the Mojave Desert north of Baker.  Gustavo Aranda also known as “Gus” climbed a 60 to 70 foot hill and could not stop before reaching the top. Gus went over the top and fell about 50 feet and was thrown from his quad. His protective gear was not enough to sustain the injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene.  
Gus leaves behind his bereaved wife, Daisy Aranda of 26 years old, two children Nathan and Isaac & a loving extended family. The Aranda family had plans to vacation this upcoming week but is now suffering at the loss of their loved one. Gus was a hardworking man (Vons Store), funny, caring and was always willing to help others. He loved his children and wife with such passion and would have gone above and beyond for them.

This sudden loss has brought much heartache to our family. The family was unprepared for this incident and is asking for contributions to fund a beautiful memorial ceremony for Gustavo Aranda-Castaneda. He will be forever remembered as a wonderful father, husband, son, brother, uncle and friend. Gus, you made it home! Wait for us, we’ll see you soon! We love you Gus!  

Thank you all for your support and prayers. God Bless!
