About Cade
Cade Keller, 16, lived and loved what he loved, BIG TIME. He was considered to be an expert in the Natural World, and the exceptional skills of survival within it. Through his life he enjoyed using his strength, agility, and nimbleness though rock climbing, high diving, skateboarding, downhill skiing, wakeboarding, waterskiing, tubing, and all ocean sports… until he saw a recent video with sharks in the waves of his playground in Coronado. In the few months prior to his death, Cade tested and was accepted in the Welding College at Mesa Community College in Arizona. He was taking three courses, and had most recently completed his first three credits, earning a 100% in the lab. His goal was to pursue Pipe Welding. He was working with Uber Eats, opened his own savings account, and was engaging in a weekly financial advising course. Cade was a music enthusiast, which included a vast variety of genres. He enjoyed creating his own meals through of the moment ingredients of which he never followed a recipe. Many have stated he was a natural Epicurean as he started cooking at a very young age. He was most often found at our kitchen table, also known as the workbench, crafting handmade patches, jackets, pants, hoodies, bags, vests, and the like. He created every item by hand, including hand studding his prized vest. Cade was constantly complimented on his clothing and frequently asked if they could buy his items from him. Cade's celebrated spirit had a standard reply, "I'm not a sell out!"
