Ignacio Beltran Gonzales

Our beloved Dad/Tata Ignacio “Nacho” Gonzales, 80 years old, passed away peacefully on 3/16/24. He was definitely one of a kind. He has joined his beloved wife of 40 years - Lupe C. Gonzales in Heaven. He was born and raised in Arizona, to Trinidad Beltran and Ignacio Gonzales Sr, and preceded in death by 3 Sisters: Linda Ramos, Carmen (China) Gonzales, and Margaret Helland, two Brothers: Samuel Gonzales and Lester Gonzales. He is survived by one brother: Ruben Gonzales (Vickie), his lovely adult children: Rosemary C. Gonzales, Diane C. Gonzales, Ignacio J. Gonzales (daughter in law Nellie), Yolanda N. Olgin (son in law Richard). He also leaves behind 5 grandchildren: Nicole E. Hurley, JR Gonzales (Melissa), Rj Olgin, Matthew Olgin and Shelby Gonzales and 11 Great Grandchildren: Viktorya Rose, Aaliyah, Angel Nikolys, Jody, Lauren, AudraMae, Gerardo (G), Charlie Rose, Aubrey, Mariano, and Valentino. He is survived by his present wife, Maria Guerra Gonzales. Nacho was a devoted father, husband, and Tata. He loved his family more than anything. He loved playing softball and golf in his younger years, taking his family on vacations, and made sure our mom had us all spiffed up for our Friday night dinners! His first job was at Food City and later began his career at American Fence - where he climbed the corporate ladder and retired as Superintendent after 40 years. He then went on and started a maintenance company and later went into business with his brother and started Sunstates Fence. He ended his later years working with his son at Fairlane Fence. Our pops was known as a hard worker in the fence business and he loved telling stories about American Fence over and over again. He was an amazing man and he sure loved his Raiders football team. His favorite beverage was an ice cold Coca-Cola or as he called it “sodie”. We will always remember him as he loved crunching hard candy and chewing on ice (because he knew it drove us nuts) He touched the lives of everyone he met and will truly be missed. We will miss you Dad, Fly High…until we meet again ❤️
