Juan B. Sánchez

Juan B. Sánchez, amado hijo, hermano, padre y amigo, falleció el 14 de mayo de 2024, a la temprana edad de 35 años. Nació el 1 de agosto de 1988 en French Camp, California, hijo de Martha G. Barragán y Juan G. Sánchez. Juan era el segundo de dos hermanos, querido por sus hermanas Alondra Manzo y Brenda Sánchez-Barragán. Deja atrás a su precioso hijo, Fabián Juan Sánchez. El nacimiento de su hijo fue un momento decisivo en la vida de Juan. Como padre, el amor de Juan no conoció límites. Su hijo era su mundo. También le sobreviven Shannon Alatorre, su pareja y sus hijos, quienes lo adoraban. Juan asistió a Atwater High School y obtuvo su certificación de fibra óptica más adelante en su vida, lo que allanó el camino para su carrera como técnico de fibra óptica. Juan era un hombre de muchos intereses pero realmente apreciaba pasar tiempo con su familia y amigos. Le gustaba trabajar en automóviles, la tranquila paciencia de pescar, la alegría de preparar una buena comida en la cocina para la familia, la disciplina del levantamiento de pesas y jugar baloncesto. Estas actividades eran más que pasatiempos para Juan; eran extensiones de su amor por la vida y su deseo de compartir sus pasiones con quienes lo rodeaban. Quienes tuvieron el placer de conocer a Juan lo describirían como fuerte, divertido, reflexivo y cariñoso. Su humor era un don que compartía generosamente, sin perder nunca la oportunidad de hacer reír a los demás. Sin embargo, fue su naturaleza amorosa lo que realmente lo definió: un corazón generoso siempre abierto para ayudar a cualquiera que lo necesitara. La risa contagiosa y la generosidad de Juan trajeron luz y amor a las vidas de todos los que lo conocieron. Su legado es de protección, risa y amor, un legado que continuarán aquellos que tuvieron la suerte de haber sido tocados por su vida. Nos consuela saber que él tenía una relación personal con Dios y aceptó al Señor Jesucristo como su salvador. Extrañaremos profundamente la presencia de Juan, pero su memoria será atesorada y su espíritu seguirá vivo a través de su amado hijo, Fabián, su madre, Martha, su padre, Juan, sus hermanas, Alondra y Brenda, e innumerables amigos y familiares. Puede él descansar en paz. _____________________________________________________________________________________ Juan B. Sanchez, beloved son, brother, father, and friend, passed away on May 14, 2024, at the young age of 35. He was born on August 1, 1988, in French Camp, California to Martha G. Barragan and Juan G. Sanchez. Juan was the second of two siblings, cherished by his sisters Alondra Manzo and Brenda Sanchez-Barragan. He leaves behind his precious son, Fabian Juan Sanchez. The birth of his son was a defining moment in Juan's life. As a father, Juan's love knew no bounds. His son was his world. He is also survived by Shannon Alatorre, his partner, and her children, who adored him. Juan attended Atwater High School and achieved his fiber optic certification later in life, which paved the way for his career as a Fiber Optic Technician. Juan was a man of many interests but he truly cherished spending time with his family and friends. He enjoyed working on cars, the quiet patience of fishing, the joy of creating a nice meal in the kitchen for family, the discipline of weight lifting, and playing basketball. These activities were more than hobbies for Juan; they were extensions of his love for life and his desire to share his passions with those around him. Those who had the pleasure of knowing Juan would describe him as strong, funny, thoughtful, and loving. His humor was a gift that he shared generously, never missing an opportunity to make others laugh. Yet, it was his loving nature that truly defined him—a generous heart always open to help any one who needed it. Juan's infectious laugh and generosity brought light and love into the lives of all who knew him. His legacy is one of protection, laughter, and love—a legacy that will be carried forward by those who were fortunate enough to have been touched by his life. We take comfort in knowing that he had a personal relationship with God and accepted the Lord, Jesus Christ, as his savior. Juan's presence will be deeply missed, but his memory will be cherished and spirit will continue to live on through his beloved son, Fabian, his mother, Martha, his father, Juan, his sisters, Alondra and Brenda, and countless friends and family members. May he rest in peace. We thank you for your prayers and support during this time. Your shared memories and condolences are appreciated.
