Gary Ray Chavez

February 2, 1970 - May 21, 2020

1970-2020 Gary Ray Chavez, age 50, beloved husband, father and soon to be grandfather, was called to Heaven on May 21, 2020. He was preceded in death by his loving wife, Toni Torres Chavez, in 2014. Gary is survived by his amazing children, Shaylene and Lucas. He was born February 2, 1970, in Albuquerque, NM. Gary attended and graduated High School in Los Lunas and lived most of his life in Belen. He fulfilled many jobs and made a difference among many. Gary worked as an Iron Worker, a Corrections Officer and for the State Forestry department. He later retired as a captain for the New Mexico Corrections Department in Los Lunas, NM. Gary was known for his love and dedication to his family, hunting, camping, fishing, dancing, riding his motorcycle and his sense of humor. He was a loyal man and would always go the extra mile to help out others, make someone laugh, or be there for support. Gary will always be remembered for his big heart, hard work throughout his life, love of the saints and his pride in his family’s accomplishments. Lucas and Shaylene would like to warmly thank everyone for their comforting words and genuine acts of kindness in their time of sadness. They are grateful to be surrounded by such amazing people with loving hearts. They also very much appreciate the hard work and exceptional care provided for their dad by Romero Funeral Home during this difficult time. Services will take place on Friday, May 29, 2020, at Romero Funeral Home Chapel, beginning with a Final Visitation from 10:00 AM – 11:00 AM and a Funeral Service at 11:00 AM.
