In Memory of Tyrone “Ty” Hidalgo-Gato

In loving memory of Tyrone “Ty” Hidalgo-Gato - an exemplary father, husband, man, and friend. Ty showed us all, by example, how to be completely present in every moment. To appreciate life, and always put forth your very best - do it right, or don’t do it at all. 

He dove head-first into his passions, and always made it a point to bring his family along - sharing his love for the outdoors, Jeeps & Cadillacs, golf, and more with his wife and daughter - whether they liked it or not. 

Ty battled Renal Cell Carcinoma for over 10 years, ruthlessly fighting while maintaining incredible optimism and a positive attitude few people could muster in such a situation. 

Through your donations to the Castaways Against Cancer, you directly fund research in the fight against cancer.

Please join us in honoring Ty’s fighting and selfless spirit.
