Remembering and cautioning after man's death in Luther swimming accident

The family and loved ones of 22-year-old Michael Jaden Ybarra are reminiscing about his life following a tragic swimming incident on the Fourth of July in Luther that resulted in his passing. Ybarra went underwater near a well-known spot called Bull Head Falls and did not resurface, prompting Oklahoma County first responders to become involved. Despite efforts by friends to rescue him, he was not saved.

His mother, Tracy Hudson, described him as a man of faith and an entrepreneur who brightened every room he entered. The family expressed gratitude for the support received while they mourn, and acknowledged a fundraiser set up to assist them. Ybarra's compassion and close relationship with his nephew were highlighted by his sister, Ashley Sarratt. Family and friends are finding solace near the site where his body was discovered, honoring his memory with prayers and flowers. They emphasized the importance of water safety, especially following heavy rainfall, and advocated for caution and awareness when swimming. Ybarra's family asked for respect for their privacy and requested thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
