Obituary of Eloy Junior Pacheco

Eloy Junior Pacheco

January 4, 1953 - November 15, 2023

Eloy was a beloved father, brother, nephew, cousin and uncle. He was a friend to all who he came across, even if it was a wave or just a nod. He is preceded in death by his wife Francis and both his parents Eloy & Clementa Pacheco.

A proud and happy man, especially of all his family.

Eloy was born in Albuquerque, in the neighborhood of Barelas. He was a joy to be around and his presence was a light of positivity, laughter, and good times. He was a "beer" half full kinda guy. There was a positive atmosphere that surrounded him and those who knew him were able to feel it. He had friends from all around New Mexico, from Espanola to Albuquerque, from Los Lunes to Mountainair and all the communities in between. He loved deeply and was a great communicator of his love. Some of his favorite things were gathering with family and friends and taking pictures of those moments.

He is survived by his aunt Stella and brothers and sisters-in-law, Steven & Yvonne, Albert & Lori, Paul and Raymond & Marga. His children Erick along with Tanya, Christopher along with Gia and Bernadette along with his favorite "sin"-in-law Cesar. His grandchildren Brian, Kelliann, Vantreese, Jasmyn, Jordan, Devin, Derrick, Angelika, Tony and Ezekiel. Great-grandchildren Josiah, Johnny, Cassius, Andrés and Juliana. Plus, many god-children, cousins, nieces, nephews and friends who were very special to him.

His most popular saying each morning and evening or anytime we'd talk to him will always be with us:

"THANK GOD FOR ANOTHER GOOD DAY!"

Well Pops! I’m sure I speak for everyone.

You will always be loved.

You will always be missed.

You will always be remembered.
