Paul "Paco" Julian Estrada



Paul "Paco" Julian Estrada was born on October 19, 1968 in Albuquerque, NM. He was taken home to Heaven by Our Lord on June 18, 2018 after a seven month battle with cancer. Paco attended Onate Elementary School, Jackson Middle School and in 1986 he graduated from Manzano High School where he loved playing football for the Monarchs.
