Anthony R. Chavez, 52, of Greeley, CO, passed away on Tuesday, March 25th, 2025.
Anthony was born on July 12th, 1973, in Greeley, CO, to Pauline Rodriguez.
He was a vibrant soul with a love for music, always the life of the party, and known for his sense of humor. A true adventurer at heart, Anthony was constantly on the go, always seeking new experiences and bringing laughter to those around him. His big personality and contagious laughter made him unforgettable, and his mischievous jokes brightened every room he entered.
Anthony had a love for snacks, a big heart, and was deeply devoted to his family. Whether he was spending quality time with loved ones or trying to make someone smile, he was always looking out for others. His survival skills and ability to navigate life's challenges with a positive attitude were just a few of the many qualities that made him so special.
He is survived by his mother, Pauline Rodriguez of Greeley, CO; two sisters, Grace Medina and Yolanda and Jesus Valencia, both of Greeley, CO; one brother, Lawrence Chavez of Taos, New Mexico; nieces, Isabel Medina and husband, Isaac Baca, Crystal Medina, Claudia Arredondo, Ally Valencia and fiancé Kevin Stark; nephews, Adrian Medina and Lawrence Chavez Jr.; many great nieces and nephews and best friend, Terrie Mendoza.
