Iñaki Bascaran - Press Release - Vantius
.......“Our hearts have shattered, and we’re still trying to comprehend that our Iñaki isn’t coming home in the way we all desperately hoped he would,” said Jose Bascaran, Iñaki’s father. “There are not enough words of gratitude to capture the appreciation we have for everyone who helped in the search for our son.”.....
......“To everyone who has watched, wished, prayed, and joined us in the grueling, frantic search, thank you from the bottom of our hearts,” said family friend Renata Buenrostro.
Some who joined the hunt for Iñaki were complete strangers, and others were longtime friends, like Kayli Fradin,
“Iñaki’s smile and energy just lit up a room,” Fradin said. “He had a big heart, always made people laugh, and loved soccer, shows like The Office, and his dog, Max.”
“It could have happened to any of us,” Fradin said. “Most people have gone out to have some weekend fun and talk about whatever adventures happened with friends the next day. It’s just a nightmare that everything went so wrong for Iñaki that night.”
Services for Iñaki will be Wednesday, Nov. 10, at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church in Glenview. The wake will be held from 3 to 7 p.m., with a mass beginning at 7 p.m.........
