He enjoyed his lunches around town, he would stop at a certain restaurant depending on what day of the week it was. You could set your watch by him on which restaurant he was going to that day, also he really enjoyed his Coca-Cola :) His Sundays were reserved for Mass at Saint Mary's Parish. He truly embraced his Catholic faith.

Juan took wonderful care of all his neighbors up & down the street. One was our family's elderly grandma, great-grandma & my "mamacita" (who adopted me as her "daughter" - I'll never forget when she told me I was her daughter - after she'd lost her only daughter & I married her son-in-law). We both loved her DEARLY & moved back to Farmington to care for her. But when we couldn't be there, Juan was ALWAYS there for her. Checking on her, taking her trash can out, as he did for everyone. He always had a smile for everyone. He loved to garden & had beautiful flowers! We never forgot him & the last time we saw him he didn't look well. But now he has no more pain, no more suffering & has joined our loved one (mamacita) in Heaven, where they rejoice together! And we are anxious to join them both! God bless you Juan, you are never forgotten! Rick & Kim Rivera
