About Kaden


February 21, 2003 – August 19, 2019

A vibrant, fun-loving kid of boundless energy, Kaden enjoyed sports, games, music and endless activity with his many friends. It should be lovingly noted that in these early years he loved to dance, especially in front of a crowd because he knew he had moves. As an older kid, Kaden loved water sports, devoured comic books, welcomed his sisters into the world and grew into a young man who made his two families (and all of their friends) so very proud. Among his friends, family and practically everyone who knew him, Kaden was known for his kindness, generosity and loving spirit. He was loved more than these words can express and he will be missed even more.

Kaden Day

Celebrated Annually on April 30th

Kaden’s younger sister, Romy McGloin, declared April 30th “International Kaden Day.” We celebrate Kaden by making all of his favorite foods, listening to a fun playlist, and talking about Kaden with friends and family. It’s a wonderful way for us to remember him. So on April 30th, we invite you to swim, dance, watch Deadpool, and eat ramen in honor of our beloved Kaden.
