Tico Casamayor’s reach extends past the six square miles of Miami Lakes thanks to all that he does for his fellow business owners and Miami Lakers.
Following a stroke in early 2026, Casamayor has been sidelined from his usual activities that have earned him the unofficial title “Mr. Miami Lakes.”
At the October lunch of the Miami Lakes Chamber of Commerce - an organization that Casamayor serves as communication officer – Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava presented him with a proclamation.
“Tico has been a dear friend and also a tremendous champion for small businesses,” Levine Cava said.
Levine Cava and Casamayor worked closely together for the Strive305 program that helps small businesses in the county.
“Through his leadership in Strive305 he really put us on the map,” Levine Cava said.
Levine Cava described him as someone who brings people together, who has passion and dedication.
“He’s on the path to recovery,” Levine Cava said. “We have an entire community standing behind him.”
Casamayor did not attend the luncheon, so Levine Cava presented his son, Matthew Casamayor, with the proclamation for his father. The Casamayors run family business AC Graphics.
