Leodegario Chavez, May He Rest In Peace

Donation protected
ENG/SPA
On July 7, 2020, the Chavez family was met with the devastating news that the wonderful husband, father, son, and brother they knew unexpectedly passed away. Leo was an always cheerful, playful, loving person who brightened up any room he walked into.  He loved to dance,  sing, play soccer, and spend time with his family.  He was a VERY  hard-working man who always did the most in his power to provide for his family. Loved by many, he left a mark wherever he went and on whoever he met.


Born on April 29, 1969,  he was a proud native of Angamacutiro, Michoacán,  Mexico. There he lived a wonderful life surrounded by his four brothers, four sisters, and parents. By the time he was 17, he came to the United States to work as a farmworker. Being a migrant farm foreman, he was constantly traveling from Salinas, CA to Yuma, AZ (the past five years from Santa Maria, CA to Yuma, AZ). Leodegario was always helping others even if it meant that outcomes may not come in his favor. He loved and was passionate about his work. 


Leodegario, unfortunately, leaves behind his beloved wife Mariaedith, two daughters Esmeralda and Jazmin, and his young son Dylan. The purpose of this fund is to support the family in their time of need for Leo was the main breadwinner. We appreciate any donations, the sharing of this link, or even sharing a memory of him in the comments below.  Thank you, God bless you.


El 7 de julio de 2020, la familia Chávez se encontró con la devastadora noticia de que el maravilloso esposo, padre, hijo y hermano que conocieron falleció inesperadamente. Leo era una persona siempre alegre, jugueton y amoroso que iluminaba cualquier habitación por la que entraba. Le encantaba bailar, cantar, jugar fútbol y pasar tiempo con su familia. Era un hombre MUY trabajador que siempre hizo todo lo posible para mantener a su familia. Amado por muchos, dejaba un huella en todos los lados que iba y en toda la gente que tuvo el honor de conocer lo. />

Nacido el 29 de abril de 1969, era un orgulloso nativo de Angamacutiro, Michoacán, México. Allí vivió una vida maravillosa rodeado de sus cuatro hermanos, cuatro hermanas y padres. Cuando tenía 17 años, llegó a los Estados Unidos para trabajar como trabajador agrícola. Siendo mayordomo del campo migrante, viajaba constantemente desde Salinas, CA a Yuma, AZ (los últimos cinco años desde Santa Maria, CA a Yuma, AZ). El amaba y le apasionaba su trabajo. Leodegario siempre ayudaba a los demas sin esperar a reciber algo a cambio.


Leodegario, desafortunadamente, deja por atras a su amada esposa Mariaedith, sus dos hijas Esmeralda y Jazmin, y su pequeño hijo Dylan. El propósito de este fondo es apoyar a la familia en su momento de necesidad de que Leo fuera el principal sostén de la familia. Apreciamos cualquier donación, compartir este enlace, o incluso compartir un recuerdo de él en los comentarios a continuación. Gracias, Dios te bendiga.
