Robert Medina Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on May 24, 2025.
Robert Anthony Medina, aged 52, passed away on May 21, 2025, in Santa Fe, NM. Born on December 16, 1972, Robert spent his lifetime pursuing his passion as an auto mechanic, a field he deeply loved and excelled in.

Known for his funny and outgoing personality, Robert had an exceptional sense of humor that brought laughter and joy to those around him. Beyond his work, he had an interest in collecting and restoring cars, and he was also a talented builder of model vehicles, a hobby that allowed him to express his meticulous and creative side.

Robert is survived by a loving family: his son, David R. Medina; daughter, Sephora R. Medina; his sister, Marcella Medina; brother-in-law, Jeff Whitfill; girlfriend, Jennifer Martinez; ex-spouse, Bernadette (Wayne). He also leaves behind many aunts, uncles, and cousins who will miss him dearly. He was preceded in death by his parents, Rudy and Jacinta Medina, and his grandparents, Roman and Frances Apodaca.

Robert's life was one of vibrant engagement with the things he loved, marked by personal relationships that were deeply valued. His legacy will live on in the hearts and memories of his family and friends, as well as the countless cars he brought back to life with his skilled hands.

Marcella, we were very sad to hear about Robert's passing. Liam was very fond of him and he was always polite the few times we ran into each other at Walmart. Prayers for Robert and your family.
Love, Mary and Liam Costello
