Paco Olascoaga, 58, passed away peacefully on April 12, 2025, in Salt Lake City, Utah, surrounded by loved ones. Born on April 6, 1967, in Mexico City, Mexico, Paco lived a life full of love, laughter, and purpose. He was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, brother, and friend. He is survived by his loving wife, Seomara Olascoaga; his children, Ramses (Yesenia) and Valeria (Brady); and his beloved grandchildren, Izabella, Santiago, Aileen, and Sophia. He is also survived by his siblings, Aracely, Norma, Sandi, Liliana, and Mario and many nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents, Yolanda and Jesus, and his sister, Gaby.
For the past 23 years, Paco poured his heart into his career as a picture framer, turning his passion for art-especially nature photography-into a lifelong craft. His work was a reflection of the beauty he saw in the world and the care he took in preserving it.
Paco's happiest moments were spent with his family. He was an avid Atlanta Braves and Dallas Cowboys fan, and he loved escaping to the Grand Tetons to soak in the peace of the outdoors. He also had a deep love for 80s music and good rock. His warmth and humor left a lasting impact on everyone who knew him.
Paco will be remembered as kind, funny, and deeply loving. His empathetic nature, inclusive spirit, and unwavering commitment to those he loved will continue to inspire all who had the privilege to know him.
A memorial service to honor Paco's life will be held on Tuesday, April 15th, at 4:30 PM.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made through a GoFundMe page that has been created in Paco's honor to support the family during this time.
