In Loving Memory of Kevin Piedrahita Taken Too Soon
Kevin Piedrahita was born to Francia Tabares on January 11th, 1992. He joined our Heavenly Father on April 22nd, 2025 @ 9:23pm, he was only 33 years old. Kevin received Christ and was baptized under the leadership of Family Church.
Kevin, whose life, though brief, touched the hearts of many. He departed this world far too early, leaving behind a legacy of kindness, laughter, and love that will never be forgotten. He was a loving father to Soleil 12yrs old and Marz 8 years old, his children were his whole world.
He will truly be missed by his family & friends.
Born with a spirit full of curiosity and warmth, he brought light into every room he entered. Whether through a quick smile or words of encouragement, he made those around him feel seen and valued. His compassion knew no bounds, and he never hesitated to put others before himself.
A gifted soul, he had passions that ranged from being a Chef, food, music, and trips to amusements parks with his kids & family. He pursued his dreams with quiet determination, always striving to make a difference. Though his time was short, he lived fully—genuinely, humbly, and bravely.
He is survived by loving family members and friends who will carry his memory forward with honor and grace. His absence leaves a space no one else can fill, yet his presence will continue to guide us, as we remember the laughter he sparked and the love he gave so freely.
A memorial service will be held to celebrate his life and the joy he brought into ours. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you honor his memory by showing kindness & love to others—just as he always did.
Now rest in peace, our dear Kevin. You are loved beyond words and missed beyond measure.
