Karl J. Lucero, age 31, of Raton, met his Lord and Savior on Saturday May 28, 2016. He was born on June 7, 1984 to Robert and Anna (Chavez) Lucero in Raton.
Karl’s passion included electronics of several varieties – computers, cell phones, gaming systems, you name it. Karl was highly intelligent and after high school attended CSU-Pueblo and was just a few months shy of earning his degree. He was a loving and caring young man with a heart of gold and had a special bond with all of his cousins. He was also quite the comedian – not just a chuckle here and there but he could make a person laugh so hard they cried. He loved cooking and eating even more. Anyone who knew Karl and his kind soul was blessed.
He is preceded in death by his paternal grandparents Joe R. and Louise Lucero; maternal great grandparents David SanRoman, Basilio and Mary Chavez; and, one aunt Sarah Hernandez.
He is survived by his parents, maternal grandparents Tom and Linda Chavez of Raton; maternal great grandmother Conchita San Roman of Raton; great grandfather Dan Lucero of Amarillo; uncles Dennis Lucero of Raton and Stephen Chavez of Espanola, NM; aunts Edith Lucero, Laurie (Steve) Garcia, Roberta (Leo) Segura, all of Raton, and Jodi Chavez of Phoenix, AZ. Numerous other aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends also survive.
Recitation of the Most Holy Rosary will be held at the St. Patrick*s/ St. Joseph*s Catholic Church on Saturday the 4th day of June at 8:30am followed by the Solemn Mass of the Resurrection at 9:00am with Father Daniel Balizan as the Celebrant and Deacon Michael Sedillo assisting.
