CORONADO, Luis Francisco

Luis Francisco Coronado, age 51, of Tucson, Arizona, entered into eternal rest on April 11, 2010 after a long and courageous battle with cancer. Luis is survived by his parents, Ceferino and Cenia Coronado; his beloved wife, Barbara and their two beautiful children, Andy and Monica. Luis is also survived by his brothers, Joe (Mona) and Cef (Rocio); his sisters, Lucy (Richard) Marinez and Estela (Sergio) Cordova, many nieces, nephews and godchildren and all his beloved compadres, comadres and parents-in-law. Luis was an exceptionally kind and generous man and was deeply loved by all of his family and friends. He was an avid outdoorsman and particularly loved to hunt and fish. Luis especially enjoyed passing on his knowledge and expertise to the younger sportsmen. He was also very talented in that he could fix "almost anything", most of the time even better than it was before. Luis loved to spend hours in his shop and was happiest when building or making something for someone else. Luis was very devoted to his family and especially proud of his children. He cherished his wife, Barbara, during their almost 28 years of marriage and they were deeply in love until the very end. He was dearly loved in return and will be deeply missed. Luis will forever be in our hearts. Visitation will be at CARRILLO'S TUCSON MORTUARY, South Chapel, 240 S.
