Luis worked at the Port of Palm Beach for 11 years until his kidneys failed from IgA neuropathy. Luis started dialysis in February 2018 and continued until he received a kidney transplant on July 5th, 2020. In June 2018, Luis started working with his wife and his in-laws at Drawdy Construction Co Inc. He enjoyed many perks including hunting trips, trips to Disney World, trips to the Keys, and fishing and camping out at his property in the Prairie. Luis was a graduate from Forest Hill High School in West Palm Beach, FL. Luis played high school baseball on the varsity team as the catcher. Luis also played baseball in college at Palm Beach Community College and Lindsey Wilson in Kentucky. Luis married Ashley in 2011 and they were soulmates since the first all night phone call. They welcomed their son, Luis Jr, in 2015.
Luis enjoyed being at the ball field. He and his wife began to help coach girl’s fastpitch softball after Luis received his Kidney transplant. If Luis wasn’t playing softball, he was coaching softball. He enjoyed everything in the outdoors including spearfishing, saltwater fishing, canal fishing with his son, taking the golf cart for an afternoon ride, camping out in the Prairie and riding the side by side for the weekend. Luis enjoyed being around friends and family all the time. No matter if it was 15 minutes too long or not. Luis was the life of the party. Always had a big smile on his face, never complained, wanted to have fun, eat good food, and make special memories. Luis was the type of person who never met a stranger. Luis was someone who will forever be missed and never forgotten. “There’s heroes & there’s legends. Heroes get remembered, but legends never die.” The Sandlot
