Stefanie Nicole Pacheco

Stefanie Pacheco, age 36, an amazing woman, mom, daughter, sister, wife, and coworker, passed away on Wednesday, August 5th, 2026. Stefanie was known for her comedic personality, her quick wit, her love for Jesus and her passion for singing worship to our Lord and Savior.

She is also survived by her mother, Amanda Ortega and her husband, Eric Ortega; her step father, Carlos Garcia; her sister, Charlee Garcia; her grandma, Josephine Torres; her mother-in-law, Gloria Pacheco; and her sister-in-laws, Nicole Burdex and Katherine Pacheco.
