Francisco Macias
August 3, 1949 — July 27, 2024
Francisco Macias, 74, was born on August 3, 1949, in Aguascalientes, Mexico to Francisco Macias and Maria Deluna. Francisco entered into eternal rest on July 27, 2024 in Downey, California.
Francisco Macias was a beloved husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, brother, and uncle. Raised in Tijuana, Mexico, Francisco began working as a carpenter at a young age. At 17, he moved to California and pursued his education at Venice High Adult School, setting the stage for a remarkable career.
Francisco's journey in California saw him start as a busboy before dedicating over 45 years to the culinary arts as a chef. His culinary skills and dedication made a lasting impact on everyone he worked with. In the late 1960s, Francisco met his future wife in Venice, California, and together they built a life filled with love and joy.
Outside of work, Francisco enjoyed fishing, woodworking, listening to oldies music, and watching movies. His greatest delight came from spending time with his family, especially his great-grandchildren, with whom he created countless cherished memories.
Despite his battle with cancer, Francisco faced his illness with remarkable strength and grace. His witty sense of humor never wavered, and he never complained about his pain or suffering. His resilience and loving spirit touched everyone who knew him.
Francisco is remembered for his unwavering strength, profound love, and the deep impact he had on his family and friends. He will be dearly missed and lovingly remembered by all who had the privilege of knowing him.
