  4. August 27, 1958 – May 15, 2026

  5. John Kenneth Aragon, 67, of Colorado Springs, Colorado, passed away on May 15, 2026. Born
  6. in Colorado Springs on August 27, 1958, John lived a life defined by faith, service, generosity,
  7. and a steadfast commitment to helping others.

  8. John was preceded in death by his father, LeeRoy Aragon, in 2000, and his mother, Eva
  9. Aragon, in 2021.

  10. He is survived by his daughter, Angela Marie Aragon; his grandson, Jeremiah Makoa
  11. Aragon-Taylor; his brother, Fred (Louise) Aragon; his sisters, Kathy (Ted) Abeyta, Shirley Bueno,
  12. and Eva Carolyn Aragon Aldaz; numerous nieces and nephews; his former wife and lifelong
  13. friend, Brenda Sambrano; and many cherished friends and members of his church family.

  14. One of his best friends, Jim LeVasseur, described him best: "John was the type of person who
  15. would give you the shirt off his back. Even if he was angry or annoyed with you, you would
  16. never know it. He treated everyone with respect and kindness."

  17. Faith was the foundation of John's life. He was an active member of Church For All Nations in
  18. Colorado Springs, where he faithfully served as an usher, on the security team, on the camera
  19. team, and as an instructor through Charis Healing University. He devoted countless hours
  20. caring for elderly members of his congregation, assisting those in need, and serving wherever
  21. help was required.

  22. John's faith inspired him to participate in mission work both close to home and abroad. He
  23. traveled to support the Wind River Indian Reservation in Wyoming and Casa Angelina
  24. Orphanage in Guatemala. Whether building, repairing, painting, operating equipment, or simply
  25. lending a helping hand, John approached every task with enthusiasm and humility. Those who
  26. served alongside him often remarked that he worked harder than people half his age. More
  27. importantly, he built lasting relationships and shared God's love through service.

  28. Outside of ministry, John loved the outdoors. He enjoyed deep-sea fishing, hunting deer and elk
  29. with both rifle and crossbow, camping, and spending time in nature. In his younger years, he
  30. raised wolves and maintained a lifelong appreciation for animals and wildlife. He was a devoted
  31. supporter of Colorado sports teams, especially the Colorado Rockies and Denver Broncos, and
  32. he was known among family and friends for recycling everything he could in an effort to care for
  33. God's creation.

  34. John also built a distinguished career spanning more than four decades in electronics, satellite
  35. communications, and engineering support. Throughout his career, he worked with organizations
  36. including Allied Signal Technical Services, Honeywell Technology Solutions, KBR, and
  37. Aerotek/Battelle. His work supporting satellite tracking and communications systems took him
  38. throughout the United States and around the world. He worked at NORAD and spent significant
  39. time living and working in Greenland, Guam, California, England, and Diego Garcia, contributing
  40. his expertise to critical communications and tracking operations. He was respected by
  41. colleagues for his technical knowledge, professionalism, integrity, and tireless work ethic.
  42. John's legacy lives on in the family he loved, the friends he treasured, the people he served,
  43. and the many lives he touched through his faith and example. He will be deeply missed and
  44. lovingly remembered by all who knew him.
