Radlee Daigle

* Funeral service begins at 4 p.m. on Monday, July 15th at Rivera Family Funeral Home followed by burial at Santa Fe Memorial Gardens.

Born on March 24th, 2005, Radlee David Daigle entered the world as a little firecracker. Rad was his nickname. He was an adorable little boy with long, blonde hair, a great smile, and trademark eyebrows. As a toddler, Radlee loved Legos, swords, Batman, snakes, and his big sister, LouLou.

He grew up as a Santa Fe kid and loved hot green chile. He completed his entire elementary education at Wood-Gormley Elementary, 7th grade at Milagro Middle School, half of his 8th grade year at St. Michael's before finishing up the year at Milagro Middle School. Rad enjoyed sports like football, basketball, baseball, and golf. He was looking forward to beginning high school at Santa Fe High this fall and maintained high hopes for excelling in an athletic activity.

Radlee was always upbeat and rarely backed down from a challenge. His brave spirit and witty sense of humor will always be remembered, cherished, and missed dearly by his friends and family. Radlee is survived by many including his parents, grandparents, lots of friends, and his two loving sisters, LouLou and Lily. 

From dad:

"There are no words to express how much I miss you. I kept you on my sleeve as fathers do with their sons but now you are in my heart. I have let a piece of my heart go with you but kept just enough so that I may take breaths to remember you. Fourteen years is very short, your spirit will live with me and others until the end of time. You were the best thing I ever achieved in this world. A living reflection of myself but much better. I love you."

From mom:

"Dear Radlee, mamma knows how much you loved your body, life, and all of us. You remain in me always and me in you, my love. We all hold you up high, and will continually celebrate your magnificence. I will take good care of Lou Lou."
