Lucian Karaba, age 49, after a courageous battle with pancreatic cancer, went home to be with the Lord on Wednesday August 8, 2018. Devoted husband of Lucica Karaba, and beloved father of Tristan Karaba, whom he loved so dearly and was so proud of; beloved son of Ioan and Aranka Karaba; beloved brother of Otilia, John (married to Daniela), Angelica, and Christian (deceased); beloved uncle of Bianca, Nadia, Joshua, and Ava; beloved uncle of Kayla and Jayden, dear brother-in-law, nephew, cousin, and friend of many.
Lucian meant so much to all of us and we will miss him greatly. Now that his journey on this earth has ended we look back at a life lived with honor, integrity, kindness and forgiveness towards others. Though his final year was marked by much pain and suffering, he found renewed strength in his faith, found peace and comfort in the Lord and was a light and inspiration for Tristan, his beloved son, and all those who were by his side. While our hearts are broken with grief and great sadness over this loss, we take great comfort in the fact that he is now at peace in the loving arms of his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and that one day we will see him again in eternity.
According to his final wishes, he will be laid to rest next to his beloved brother Christian Karaba, who passed away a year earlier after a long battle with muscular dystrophy.
