Friends and family,

It is with heavy hearts that we share the news of Juan Cadena's passing after his courageous battle with cancer. Juan was not just a teacher, a husband, or a friend—he was a beacon of light and inspiration to all who had the privilege of knowing him.

For the past four years, he has been courageously battling neuroendocrine carcinoma cancer, showing incredible resilience and determination every step of the way.

Despite his own health struggles, Juan continues to pour his heart and soul into his role as an Agriculture teacher, shaping the minds and futures of the next generation. His dedication to the FFA and 4H programs has touched the lives of many, instilling in them a passion for agriculture and a sense of responsibility to their community.

But Juan is more than just a teacher; he's a mentor, a friend, and a beacon of positivity. He has a gift for connecting with people, turning strangers into friends with his warmth and genuine kindness. Whether he's in the classroom or out in the world, Juan's impact is undeniable.

Now, as Juan faces this formidable battle against cancer, he needs our support more than ever. Medical expenses can quickly become overwhelming, and we want to ensure that Juan and his wife Amanda can focus on what matters most: his health and well-being.
