He worked many years in agriculture as well as factory work. He was employed at Idaho Frozen Food for ten years. His passions were fishing, gardening, and spending anytime he could with his children and grandchildren. His grandchildren were his life and happiness. He would always say that hearing the grandkids laughing or seeing their smile was his eternal happiness. Juan was a loving son, brother, uncle, father, husband, grandfather and great grandfather and was a caring and loving man to all who knew him. Some of his proudest moments was seeing his family grow and thrive and having two sons serve in the military.

The family would like to thank Linda Alejandro, Carman Zacate and Nora Valle for caring for dad.
