Alan was born on May 27, 2005, in Alpine, Texas, to Aaron and Norma Valenzuela. He was raised in Presidio and graduated from Presidio High School. He went on to attend Odessa College, where he earned a certificate in automotive technology. Most recently, Alan joined Jacam Catalyst, where he began building his professional career.
Alan was a young man who truly lived life to the fullest. Hardworking, strong in his faith, and always ready to lend a helping hand, he touched countless lives with his kind heart and uplifting spirit.
Driven and determined, Alan achieved many milestones early in life –– most notably becoming a homeowner at just 20 years old. He had many dreams and aspirations, and though his journey was tragically cut short, the impact he made in his time with us is immeasurable.
Above all else, Alan’s greatest love was for his family. He was the proud son of devoted parents, and a beloved brother to his sister and brother. To them, he was the greatest of sons and the best of brothers –– bringing laughter, joy, and sometimes frustration, but always showing unwavering love. There are not enough words to fully capture the incredible young man Alan was. But those who knew him will forever carry his memory, his smile, and his light in their hearts. Alan will be sorely missed here on Earth, but we find comfort in knowing he now soars above watching over his cherished family with love.
Alan Valenzuela is preceded in death by his grandfather Ernesto Valenzuela Ramirez. Alan Valenzuela is survived by his parents, Aaron and Norma Valenzuela; and siblings Aaron Ernesto Valenzuela II and Ailani Valenzuela. Pallbearers will be Aaron Ernesto Valenzuela II, Sebastian Franco, Martin Baeza, Gael Aguirre, Aiden Tavarez and Ilianna Morales.
The family of Alan Valenzuela extends their most sincere gratitude to everyone who has offered support during this difficult time. Whether through prayers, your presence or assistance in any form, your kindness has meant the world to us.
There are too many generous hearts to name individually, but please know that each gesture –– big or small –– has brought us comfort and strength. We are truly thankful for the love and compassion shown to our family.
