Alexander Joel Tsuetaki

Alexander Joel Tsuetaki, of Crystal Lake, passed away on August 8th, 2024. He was born in Chicago, IL on September 12th, 2002. He leaves behind his mother Elba Tsuetaki, three brothers: Anthony Tsuetaki, Jonathan (Janet) Tsuetaki, & Benjamin Tsuetaki (Jocelyn Ramos) and six nieces and nephews named Anthony Tsuetaki Jr., Olivia, Evan, Natalie, Katherine and Denise.

Alex faced many challenges in recent years, but beneath it all was a heart that was deeply caring and full of potential. His love for music and art. Though his aspirations to become a YouTuber and rapper did not unfold as he had hoped, his enthusiasm and creativity never wavered. Alex was a Crystal Lake Central High School graduate, who graduated in 2022. Recently, Alex shared his desire to turn his life around and pursue a new path by studying business at McHenry County College. This aspiration reflected his determination to seek new opportunities and create a better future for himself. It is a poignant reminder of the dreams he held and the person he wanted to become. Alex's journey was marked by both struggles and a deep yearning for change. While we mourn the loss of who he was and what he might have achieved, we also honor his courage to dream and his sincere effort to reshape his life. His family and friends will remember him for his artistic spirit, his ambition, and the kindness he showed to those around him.
