It is with much grief that the Radchenko family announces the sudden and tragic passing of Loran Dale Radchenko, Jr. in San Pedro, Belize on April 27, 2025. He was 47 years of age.

He will be fondly remembered for his generosity, kindness, honesty, loyalty, and his fearless pursuit and persistence in the fulfillment of his dreams. He was a man who was totally focused on completing what he set out to accomplish. Never giving up was his philosophy and working hard to see things through to the end was his focus. He will be remembered and missed by all who knew and loved him.

Loran was a businessman for most of his adult life. He was employed in the oil patch on drilling rigs working his way up the ladder to owning his own consulting company. He also owned a retail business in Sicamous, BC, and was developing a tourist resort in Belize at the time of his passing.
