Jose (Pepe) Quintana Chaparro, passed peacefully into eternal life late Sunday night, July 25, 2021, at his home. His wife of 53 years, Bertha Marin Chaparro was by his side. Pepe was born on February 22, 1941, to Enrique and Susana Chaparro on a ranch near Escalon, Chihuahua, Mexico. The youngest of eight children, Pepe worked on his parent's ranch and helped provide for the family by hunting-a skill that he taught his children and many nephews. He came to Las Cruces in the mid 1960's and worked for Lopez Chaparro Construction for over 30 years and built his reputation as the best cement finisher in Las Cruces. Upon retirement Pepe enjoyed traveling with his wife all over the state to support her work in public health dentistry. When his first grandson was born, he became a devoted and loving grandfather. Pepe is survived by his wife Bertha, his daughter Maria Berta Chaparro, son-in-law Tony De La Cruz and grandson Andres Jose De La Cruz; his two sons Jose-Juan, Samuel Chaparro and his sons Xavier and Ximenez. He was preceded in death by his sisters Monica Barajas and Asuncion Holguin. Memorial services will take place on Monday, August 9, 2021 with the Rosary beginning at 10:30 am, followed by the Funeral Mass at 11:00 am at Our Lady of Health Catholic Church. Service Information
