Sarah Pacheco Navarro, beloved Mother, Grandmother, Partner, Sister, Aunt, and Friend, passed away surrounded by love. Born and raised in the heart of Las Cruces, Sarah carried her roots proudly and held her family close to her in every chapter of her life. Family was always her first priority—she loved deeply and protected fiercely without hesitation.
She was a devoted mother to Rainy Pacheco, Ernesto Pacheco, and Alianna Pacheco, and a proud grandmother to Leo Thomas Pacheco Tovar and Mikey Pacheco, who brought endless light into her days. She shared her life with her loving partner, Allen Navarro, whose companionship brought comfort, patience, and strength.
She leaves behind her mother, Isabel Pacheco; her sister, Theresa Pacheco; her “crazy” and loving older brother, Paul Pacheco; and her sister-in-law, Tanya Pacheco. She is also survived by several cherished nieces and nephews, including her “Favorite golden child” Paul Anthony Pacheco, along with Joshua Pacheco, Brittany Pacheco, Jovonnie Pacheco, Julian Pacheco, and Azalea Pacheco.
Sarah was a gentle soul with a huge heart for animals, especially her cats. Her home was filled with warmth, kindness, and her beloved fur babies. Those who knew Sarah will remember her for her strength, her stubbornness, and her unwavering devotion to her family. She always put her loved ones before anything else.
She leaves behind a legacy of love, resilience, and devotion that will continue to guide the hearts of her children, grandchildren, and everyone blessed enough to have known her. She will be deeply missed, forever loved, and never forgotten. She is now surrounded with love, held close by her brother and her dad
