Valentin was a great person with a wonderful smile and easy to be and hang out with. Everyone who knew him enjoyed his cooking and his laughter when he would watch movies and some giggles with his Aunt Sophie who was there to help him grow up to be good man. Sophie was like a mother to him helping him through rough times and loving him like a son after his mothers passing. He was a very loving person who would help anyone in a time of need. He loved to listen to music and watch his dad work. He had a big heart and was always kind to strangers and loved his family and friends dearly.

The family would like to thank the Santa Fe Fire Department and the Santa Fe Sheriff’s Department for helping Valentin and a special thanks to all relative and friends for the phone calls and the support.  Also, very special thanks to JJ Griego for making the homemade urn.
