Leo G. Torres, age 76, a resident of Belen, NM, parted this world to be with our heavenly Father on Tuesday, May 3, 2022. He is preceded in death by his mother and father, Odilia and Lorenzo Torres; youngest brother, Silviano Torres; and brother-in-law, Felix Barela. Leo is survived by his daughters, Nadine Osburn (Chris), and Samantha (Dave Suarez); grandchildren, Leo and Nayeli; sister, Albina Barela; brother Robert Torres (Gorgea); and many nieces, nephews, family, and friends. Leo lived his life for his family and loved all that knew him. He was a man who did everything he could to take care of those he loved. No words can describe the pain the family feels with him gone, but he will always live in their hearts. In lieu of services, Leo requested a Celebration of Life be held at his home to "eat food and gather to tell stories." The Celebration will be held on Saturday, May 7, 2022 at 12:00 p.m. at 303 Rosedale Cir. Belen, NM 87002. Please sign Leo's online tribute at www.romerofuneralhomenm.com Romero Funeral Home, 609 N. Main St., Belen, NM.
