In Loving Memory of Adam Sanchez, lovingly known by many as "Danis," 51, of Lovington, New Mexico, went home to be with the Lord on October 2, 2025. Adam was a devoted husband, father, son, brother, and friend. He is survived by his wife: Rebekah; children: Alicia, Daniella, and Adam Jr.; stepchildren Alexus and Vanessa; grandchildren: Boston, Luke, and Presley; parents: Lupe and Leon; brothers: Gilbert, Albert, and Joe; and sisters: Angie and Dora. A man of deep faith, Adam believed in the power of prayer and encouraged others to seek a close relationship with Christ. He had a generous heart and an unmatched sense of humor -always ready with a joke or story to bring a smile. Adam found joy in simple moments at home, cherished time with friends & family, and cheering for his 49ers. He loved spending time with those close to him, whether sharing laughter at home, golfing, or playing basketball, or lending a hand with outdoor work. And occasionally, found getting down on the dance floor -reminding us all that life was meant to be enjoyed. Adam often said, "Life is what you make it," and he lived that truth every day-with gratitude, laughter, and love. His kindness, humor, and unwavering faith will be deeply missed and forever remembered by all who knew him. "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit." – Psalm 34:18

Rosary will be held on Monday, October 6, 2025 at 6:00pm at Kirby-Ratliff Chapel.
