Keagan Samuel White

Keagan Samuel White, born on October 25, 2006, left this world far too soon on November 4, 2024. A soft spoken soul with a heart full of kindness and sweet smile, he was affectionately remembered for giving the best hugs—a simple yet profound expression of his genuine warmth and compassion.

Initially shy, Keagan opened up to those fortunate enough to know him, revealing depth of sweetness, kindness and respect that touched every life he encountered. He was a loyal friend, cherishing the bonds he formed with those he adored. Keagan had an unwavering love for his family, including his mother Lyssette Cruz, his step-father Mike, and his father Michael Mc Roberts. As a beloved little brother to Will Castellanos, he shared a special connection that brought joy to their lives. His nana Lydia, grandma Mary, uncle Anthony, auntie Tina, uncle Barry, auntie Maryanne, all embraced him with open arms, adding to the warmth of his family circle, which also consisted of dozens of cousins and friends who cherished him dearly.

Keagan tried to find beauty in the world around him. It was evident in the way he captured photos of the sky and the moon.  His pictures were a testament to his desire to see the beauty in everything. Music was another love of his; filling his days with rhythm and melody. His love of movies started early in life when his mother and him would do movie dates. 

Keagan's presence will be sorely missed by those who loved him. His life, though brief, was a shining example of how kindness and love can leave an indelible mark on the world.
