On Monday, March 21, 2011, he entered eternal peace at Mountain View Regional Medical Center. He was born July 31, 1951, in Chihuahua, Mexico to his parents, Cuberto and Lucia Moreno; they both preceded him in death. He was a partner and loving husband to Maria Luisa Moreno for 14 years. Also grieving this great loss are his four sons and their wives, who loved him dearly; Ernesto and Rose Avalos, Edgar and Trish Avalos, Tony and Crystal Avalos, and Martin and Cindy Avalos, all from Las Cruces. Those who will also miss him greatly are his 15 grandchildren. Moreno, as he was known to everyone, was a professional in auto body work. He worked in this occupation for years and loved what he did. He was an honest, hardworking man and will always be remembered with love and gratitude for the good-hearted person that he was. Our pain is eased with the knowledge that he is now resting and no longer suffering, and that we will always have our memories as a family. We love you and miss you Moreno. Visitation for Moreno will begin at 6 PM, Thursday, March 24, 2011 in the Apostolic Church of Jesus Christ, 700 McAnally Ave. in Berino, with the Evening Service scheduled for 7 PM. The Funeral Service will be held at 10 AM, Friday, March 25, 2011 in the same church with Pastor Antonio G. Morales, officiating. Concluding Service and Interment will follow in Masonic Cemetery, 760 S. Compress Road in Las Cruces, where he will be laid to rest.
