Irving spent his school years in Layton, Utah at the Christian Academy through 12th grade.

Irving lived always by his parents and finally settled in Paonia, Colorado where he worked at the family business. He loved his family deeply.

Irving enjoyed music, dancing, and cooking was one of his passions. He dreamed of becoming a culinary art chef. He also lived the outdoors; hunting, fishing, walking his dog Brun, and swimming. He enjoyed passing time with his brothers and his sister, she was his biggest love…he cared for her immensely. His friends were an important part of his life. He knew how to be a good and loyal friend.

Irving is survived by his parents, Juan Curiel and Claudia Moreno; his brothers, Juan A. Curiel (Juanito), and Andrès Curiel (Andy); his sister, Avriel Curiel (friend); his grandmother, Catalina Moreno; uncles, aunts, and lots of cousins.

His light will always brighten our hearts.

In lieu of flowers, please make donations to his family so they can take Irving to Mexico.
