Saed Angel Jimenez Calderon

There aren’t enough words to express the plethora of emotions we feel. We feel angry, sad, and full of pain. Without him we feel lost and overwhelmed with pain. We long for him to show up at home or to receive his phone call.

He was the best even when he wasn’t feeling the best. He was reliable and his love never wavered. He always kept the biggest smile on his face regardless of the situation.

Today is a difficult day in our family’s lives. We are gather here today to say farewell to our son, brother, cousin, nephew, grandson and friend. To everyone who had the opportunity to know Saed Angel, you are aware of the type of man he was. Those of you who weren’t fortunate enough to meet him, we have gathered some words to provide you with an idea of the type of man he was: He drew people to him and always made sure to make them feel comfortable. Saed Angel radiated kindness and he inspired others to be generous and altruistic. He made everyone feel like a best friend.

It would be an understatement to say that Saed was polite, he demonstrated care and respect to everyone around him. He was a compassionate and grateful man through good and bad circumstances. Getting certified as a diesel mechanic, he was on his path to buy a home, and live a simple life. He wanted to be a positive influence to his brothers, family, and friends. His most recent desires were to travel more. He was planning a trip with his brother Aaron because he had just gotten his passport. He also wanted to start a business.

Saed wasn’t just a loving son and brother, he was also a giving and kind friend. Saed was loved by all the family and and friends present here today.

His departure has shocked us all. His life was unexpectedly brief. Our family would like to thank everyone for all the support, compassion, and love throughout these very difficult times. We’d like to thank you all from the bottom of our hearts.
