Carlos Chairez was born to Elda on November 11, 1991, in Emporia, Kansas. He passed away on September 1, 2024, in Manhattan, Kansas.
Known for his kind heart, Carlos had a unique ability to strike up conversations with random strangers as if he had known them for years. He had a charming smile and a way of making people feel loved. He enjoyed starting his day with breakfast at his favorite restaurant, The Chef. Carlos cherished living in the moment, as if it were his last day, frequently reminding his loved ones, especially his family, of his deep affection for them and capturing every moment through photographs.
He adopted a fearless approach to life, pursuing hobbies such as bull riding, attending rodeos and mixed martial arts, and supporting his favorite athlete, Conor McGregor. Carlos's love for Boston was evident, and he aspired to live there to be close to his beloved Red Sox. He took immense joy in watching movies and listening to music.
Carlos was a good son, brother, great uncle, and friend. Carlos meant more to his family than he ever understood. He gave his life to the Lord and is now in heaven with his brother Jovany. Carlos will be missed and will live forever in our hearts. We will miss him deeply.
Carlos is survived by his parents, Elda Lopez, sister April, sister Gaby, Family Julie and Christian, Yancey, Elizabeth, and countless other friends and family.
