Who IS Juan Pacheco?

Juan was the 4th born to Raymond and Alicia. A loving, affectionate and respectful boy – that had charisma since birth.

Johnny was a kid brother that – well – You know how kid Brothers can be…. But he could keep a secret.

Johnny was an older brother - that didn’t mind you tagging along, because he loved taking care of you and showing you the ropes.

Johnny was an Uncle that was playful, loving and nurturing, yet, let you stay up late or just hang out.

Johnny was a Great-Uncle that – Well – was - Just Lots of Fun, and so, so funny.

John was a boy-friend that knew how to dance with a killer smile
and could make you feel so special and wonderful.

John was a friend to all – but called you family. He knew how to make you laugh yet could Cry with you in your sadness.

This WAS Johnny Pacheco and so much more.

So, Who IS Johnny Pacheco?
A CHILD of GOD
That has gone home to heaven.

Paul wrote: "Brethren, be not children in understanding, but, rather, men". Death is not the end, merely the beginning. "Flesh and Blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God". And, again the Apostle Paul says that death is the ship leaving the harbor.
Johnny, may God grant you the peace you so longed to find....I will miss your laughter and smile...I will cherish them until my death. I will temper my tears of your early departure from us and exchange them for giving to others. I cannot ever thank you enough for bringing true joy into my life. We laughed so much then. We will maintain the Faith until God calls each of us home....rest now in your early Sabbath my dear friend.
