Throughout his life, Nacho was an avid enthusiast of golf, fishing, and NASCAR races. He also cherished the times he spent tending to his pigs. His hands were rarely still, as he was always building or fixing something, embodying the heart of a true craftsman.
A faithful member of St. Patrick Cathedral, Nacho found peace and community in his place of worship. His faith was an integral part of his life, guiding him in his daily actions and relationships.
Ignacio was preceded in death by his parents, Ignacio Villegas Sr. and Micaela C. Villegas; and his sister, Jovita Gonzales.

Nacho's legacy is marked by his love for his family, his kindness, and his unwavering work ethic. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him, leaving behind a void that cannot be filled. His memory will be cherished and kept alive through the stories shared by those who loved him.
