Francisco Lara Lopez, a man of wit and wisdom, has made his final bow. Born in Moroleon, Guanajuato, on the 24th of November 1938, he passed away peacefully in Riverside, California, on the 30th of October 2023. His life was a story of intelligence, and humor, which he generously shared with all who knew him. His early years were spent in the heart of Guanajuato, where he cultivated a love for history. The stories of the past fascinated him, and he spent countless hours reading and learning. His thirst for knowledge was unquenchable, and it shaped him into the intelligent man he became. In his youth, he moved to the United States, where he worked tirelessly in the fields and general labor. His work ethic was unparalleled, and he was respected by all who worked alongside him. His hands were rough, but his heart was soft, always ready to lend a hand or share a laugh. Francisco was a man of simple pleasures. He loved the smell of fresh coffee in the morning. He was a smoker, a habit that he enjoyed in solitude, often accompanied by his thoughts and reflections. His laughter was infectious, and his sense of humor was a beacon of light in the lives of those around him. He was a devoted husband to his beloved wife, Maria Botello. Their love story was one for the ages, filled with laughter, shared dreams, and unwavering support. Together, they raised a family that was a reflection of their love. Their children and grandchildren were the apple of Francisco's eye, and he took great pride in their achievements. Francisco was a faith-filled man, who believed in the power of prayer and the goodness of people. His faith was his compass, guiding him through life's storms and sunny days alike. He was a pillar of strength for his family, always ready with a word of encouragement or a comforting hug. In his passing, we remember Francisco Lara Lopez not just for his accomplishments, but for the man he was. His legacy is one of love, laughter, and learning. He was a beacon of light in a sometimes-dark world, and his memory will continue to shine brightly in the hearts of those who loved him. So, here's to Francisco, a man of faith and fun, a lover of books and coffee, and a beacon of light for all. His journey on earth may have ended, but his spirit lives on, in the stories we share, the memories we cherish, and the love we hold in.Show more
