Roberto Cardenas

Roberto Cardenas, a beautiful life cut short. On December 14, 2023 our family lost our rock. Bobby C. was a loving husband to Jane, father to Kaylina (Chris), Miguel, and Roberto Jr. (Presley), grandfather to Christina, Christopher, Adriana, and Gabriella, brother to Belinda Cardenas. He was a loyal friend, neighbor, and colleague who left a lasting impression on everyone in his community. Bobby C. retired on July 29, 2022 after 33 years of proudly serving as a USPS letter carrier. The Friday after Thanksgiving, he was taken to the hospital unexpectedly and his fight began. He fought hard each day for 2+ weeks, yet still managed to exude that charisma we’ve all grown to cherish. The fight he had in him up to his last breath was inspiring to us all. Bobby C. was as selfless as they come and touched everyone fortunate enough to meet him. “Heroes get remembered, but legends never die.” We miss you; we will always love you, and we will carry on your legacy. Please join us in celebrating the beautiful life of the greatest man we’ve known. Funeral services will be held at 2 pm on Friday, December 22 at Matthysse Kuiper DeGraaf Funeral Home, 4031 Clyde Park Ave SW, Wyoming, with Rev. John Vallier officiating. A luncheon will follow at Wyoming Harbor Church, 2141 Porter St. SW, Wyoming. Relatives and friends may meet the family Thursday, December 21 from 4-8 pm at the funeral home for visitation and one hour prior to the service on Friday. In lieu of flowers, those who wish may make memorial contributions to the American Heart Association.
