fighting, triathlons, and countless half-marathons. After many years of dating, he married his love, Kenia Esther Taveras in September of 2016; while cancer unfairly cut their time short, undoubtedly, their love for one another will last forever. More than anything, Diego loved his children (biological and step) and nothing gave him greater joy or pride than being their father. He is survived by his wife, Kenia; four children Jacob, Luna, Angelina, and Kyle; his parents, Gladys and Edmundo; his siblings; the mother of his biological children, Diana; and countless friends and loved ones. Diego had a deep spiritual faith and is, no doubt, thankful to be resting in everlasting peace with God. There will be a public memorial for friends and family from 3pm-4pm on Wednesday, June 28, 2017. This celebration of life will be held at Calvary Chapel, Fort Lauderdale (2101 West Cypress Creek Road, South Chapel). In remembrance of Diego's love for his family, a fund has been established in his honor; if so moved, in lieu of flowers, please consider contributions to: www.youcaring.com/DiegoPerezFamily
