Kash D. R. Dorrier

Life Story

Mr. Kash Dakota Raign Dorrier, 22 of Bristol, passed away at the emergency department of Elkhart General Hospital on Tuesday, July 7, 2020 at 4:08 am following a sudden illness at home. He was born in Elkhart on May 18, 1998 and was the son of Jermel Savado of Mishawaka and Angel Marie Dorrier of Elkhart.

Also surviving is his daughter, Lyla Dorrier; brothers Kaiven, Sleigh and Armanni Dorrier; sisters Kyleah and Nevaeh Savado and grandparents Mike and Jody Dorrier; all of Bristol, and his grandmother Toni Norman. He is survived as well by his girlfriend Caitlin Hernandez, his former spouse (and mother of Lyla) Estella Donis, and a host of aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins, extended family, close friends, homies and brothers-from-another-mother.

Billings Funeral Home and Cremation Services of Elkhart is hosting Kash’s Homegoing service beginning with a gathering of family and friends on Tuesday, July 14, 2020 at 12:00 noon, followed by a funeral service at 1:00 pm. Billings Chaplain Jeremy Sarber will officiate and burial will follow at Adamsville Cemetery, just east of Edwardsburg, MI.

To Kash, the center of the universe was his family. He was loving, kind and fiercely loyal, especially to daughter Lyla, and would do anything to keep his family safe and well. He was modest and “unsung”, but the hero in him shined through every time he would give a part of himself to make another’s life or situation easier. Throughout his short but profound walk here on Earth, Kash enjoyed reaching out to his friends who had a rougher way to go than himself, and would try to improve their situation for them. Whether a place to stay, some extra money, a hot meal shared with a friend or just sitting down and connecting with someone, Kash cared. He was also a talented gamer, loved to rap and write rhymes, and was a true anime weeb. 

Memorial donations may be given to the family.
