November 21, 1955-February 15, 2025
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved Adan Gardea Jr., who left us to be at peace on February 15, 2025, at the age of 69. Born November 21, 1955 in El Paso, TX, Adan's life was one of passion , strength, and resilience. He was a proud graduate of Las Vegas High School, where he earned a reputation as a fierce and dedicated soccer player.
Throughout his life Adan was an avid sports enthusiast. He had a special love for boxing, racing, and staying active, with racquetball and gym workouts being a part of his daily routine.
He could often be found participating in annual Turkey Trots, a tradition he kept for many years, showing his unwavering commitment to physical fitness.
Adan was also known for his unparalleled work
ethic, which shone through his remarkable 50
years at Caesars Palace. His dedication, loyalty, and drive were unmatched, making a lasting
impact on his colleagues and the many lives he touched throughout his career.
Adan was the heart of his family, a cherished brother to Laura Gardea, Ricardo Gardea, Arturo Gardea, Marcy Martinez, and Luis "Boogie" Gardea. Adan is survived by his children, Carlos Gardea and Angelica Flores, and his five beautiful
granddaughters: Alejandra Gardea, Isabel Gardea, Natalia Gardea, Gabriella Flores, and Ysabella Flores.
His legacy of love, strength, and joy for life will
live on in his family and friends. Adan's impact on all who knew him will never be forgotten, and he will be deeply missed. May he rest in peace.
