It is with the deepest sorrow that we announce that Aaron Matthew Pacheco, beloved son, brother, uncle, grandson, nephew, cousin, friend passed away after a valiant effort by his mother, Lisa Michelle Pacheco, brother, Manny Don Pacheco, numerous first responders, doctors and nurses, early Friday morning, August 21, 2020.

Aaron, born March 13, 1993 in Chicago left us all too soon at the tender age of 27. He is survived by his mother, Lisa Michelle Pacheco, his brothers: Manny Don Pacheco and Cody Michael Pacheco, his nephew Oliver Pacheco, grandparents Jack and Jean Canatsey, and Uncle Larry Canatsey and Aunt Tammy, Aunt Lynda Canatsey, Uncle Jeffrey Canatsey and Aunt Kasey, Aunt Laura Neutzman and Uncle Keith, Uncle Scott Canatsey and Aunt Carrie, Aunt Melanie Wilson and Uncle Greg, his Aunt Sarah Canatsey and many, many cousins and many, many friends. He is predeceased by his cousins, Tyler and Jason Canatsey.

There was no one who ever met Aaron who did not love him. You absolutely could not help yourself. Shy at first, once Aaron knew you the true depth of his kindness, gentleness and compassion was revealed. He was the definition of funny and charming all enhanced by the fact that he never knew just how funny, charming and endearing he was. Aaron inherited his powerful and dedicated work ethic from his family and pushed himself hard to do well and please. He was an excellent cook and when not working he immersed himself in music, Adult Swim cartoons, The Office and making life sweeter for anyone in his presence.

Aaron moved through this world with the most broken of hearts. If he had loved himself as well as he loved everyone around him these words would be unnecessary. We will ache for him the rest of our lives. We can only comfort ourselves knowing that now, finally now, that beautiful, tender heart is finally whole again. Our beautiful boy finally knows peace.

A Visitation and Prayer Service will be held on Wednesday, August 26th, 2020 at the DeGusipe Funeral Home at 9001 N. Orlando Avenue, Maitland, Florida 32751 at 6:45pm.
