After a long battle with depression the pain became too unbearable and on February 24, 2019 Kailen Joseph "Mook" Ludwig made the decision to take his own life and join his paw-paw and his dear friend Preston for eternity. Kailen is survived by his parents DaJuane and Karen Chandler; his three beautiful sisters Taylor, Abby and Claire. He also leaves behind his maternal grandmother Patricia Ludwig, again reunited with his grandfather Dennis Ludwig. He is also survived by his aunt Shelly "Shell Shell" Loving (Mark Loving), his uncle Dennis Ludwig (Tammy Ludwig), his cousins Brittany, Kevin, Cassidy, Julia, Tyler and many cherished second cousins. He is also survived by his beloved girlfriend Taylor Welch, many friends and family. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you consider donating to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.
