Obituary of Eduardo Maciel, Jr.
Eddie Maciel Jr. 41 of Chualar, CA passed away on December 21, 2022.
You would have a hard time finding a person that met Eddie that didn't like him. He had the biggest heart. He was kind, funny, and generous.
For about 2 years Eddie has been fighting infections, infections in different areas of his body. He has always been able to beat them enough to continue to live his life as he wanted. Unfortunately, this last one was more than he could handle and his body finally gave in.
Eddie has always been a fighter since he was younger. He fought a courageous and valiant battle throughout his 41 years. The strength and courage it took to withstand things would be unmatchable by any other man or woman out there.
Being in a wheelchair didn't stop Eddie from doing anything he wanted to do. He rode motorcycles, he played baseball and basketball. He even volunteered for the Los Banos police department and loved going out on calls. He also loved playing the guitar and was a member of a band for many years. His love for music led him to start his own business. He became an entrepreneur and started his own DJ business out of Los Banos. No job was too small for him he would work anywhere he was asked to play.
He leaves behind his wife Claudia, and his two sons Nicolas and Nathaniel. His father Ed Sr. and his brother David. He is proceeded in death by his Mother Susan, his maternal grandparents George and Peggy, and his paternal grandparents Antonio and Laura.
He will be missed by many aunts, uncles, cousins, and many, many friends he made throughout his life.
