Our beloved Nicolas Richard Ochoa was taken from us way to soon on Monday, June 10, 2024, at 5:24pm. He slipped freely of his earthly bonds and into the loving arms of Jesus to begin his greatest adventure. Our sweet Nic was kind and charismatic and would do anything for those he loved and cared for, especially his mother and Nana and Papa. Nic was greeted in heaven by Mark Hinojos and Jesse Hudson and Kayla Gilmore. Left to cherish his memory is his mother Richele Ochoa, his Nana and Papa Richard and Sandy Ochoa, Grandparents Rich and Amanda Ochoa, Grandparents Steven and Tamara Devenport, Uncles Steven Ochoa, Erik Baisley and Jaime Johnson. Aunts, Tammy Ochoa, Savannah Ochoa, DeeDee McCants and Connie Johnson. Cousins Cassandra and Kaylee Crowell, Tianna and Tommy Jacquez, Roman Gallagher and many other family and close friends. Nic was born in Farmington, NM on June 20, 2008. He was raised by his mother, Nana and Papa in Farmington and attended high school at Piedra Vista. Nic belonged to several online gaming communities. He looked forward to spending every possible moment with family and in the great outdoors. Nic was fearless and full of adventure. His loving and caring nature was evident with anyone that he crossed paths with. Nic will move forward with services of Cremation and his Celebration of Life will take place on Saturday, June 15, 2024, at Crossroads Community Church, 2400 N Butler Avenue, Farmington, NM.
