In Loving Memory of Leonel "Leo" Pazos Velasquez
June 14, 2003 – August 7, 2025
Leonel "Leo" Pazos Velasquez, 22, of Garland, Texas, passed away on August 7, 2025, leaving behind a legacy of laughter, love, and kindness that will be cherished forever.
Born in Dallas and raised in Garland, Leo brought joy into the world from the moment he arrived. Leo had a gift for bringing joy to everyone around him from the very start. He graduated from North Garland High School and began a career as an electrician, while also pursuing his studies to become a real estate agent—a path that perfectly reflected his natural skill, problem-solving abilities, and hardworking spirit.
Leo's life was guided by big dreams and even bigger love. He dreamed of owning a home, traveling the world, and starting a family with his beloved girlfriend, Jennifer Soto. His vision of the future was filled with adventure, family, and making the most of every moment.
Outside of work, Leo's passions brought color and joy to his life. He had a passion for boxing, an ear for the soulful sounds of the saxophone, and a heart for animals. He was incredibly handy and could fix almost anything, but his greatest gift was the way he made people feel. Leo was funny, humble, and kind—always quick with a joke, a smile, or a helping hand. He had a way of lighting up every room he walked into, lifting the spirits of those around him without even trying.
Leo will be deeply missed by his parents, Rosa Velasquez and Gamaliel Pazos; his siblings, Natalia Pazos and Jonathan Pazos; and his girlfriend, Jennifer Soto. He also leaves behind extended family, countless friends, and all those whose lives were brightened by his presence. Although his time with us was far too short, Leo lived fully, loved deeply, and left an indelible mark on every soul he touched. Though our hearts are broken, we hold fast to the promise that we will see him again in Heaven. His faith, his love, and his joy remain a testament to the goodness of God and the beauty of a life well lived.
"I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith." – 2 Timothy 4:7

En Memoria de Leonel "Leo" Pazos Velásquez
14 de Junio de 2003 – 7 de Agosto de 2025
Leonel "Leo" Pazos Velásquez, de 22 años, de Garland, Texas, falleció el 7 de agosto de 2025, dejando un legado de risas, amor y bondad que será recordado por siempre.
Nacido en Dallas y criado en Garland, Leo trajo alegría al mundo desde el momento en que llegó. Tenía un don para brindar felicidad a todos los que lo rodeaban. Se graduó de North Garland High School y comenzó una carrera como electricista, mientras también cursaba estudios para convertirse en agente de Bienes Raíces, un camino que reflejaba perfectamente su talento natural, su capacidad para resolver problemas y su espíritu trabajador.
La vida de Leo estuvo guiada por grandes sueños y un amor aún más grande. Soñaba con tener su propia casa, viajar por el mundo y formar una familia junto a su amada novia, Jennifer Soto. Su visión del futuro estaba llena de aventuras, familia y aprovechar al máximo cada momento.
Fuera del trabajo, las pasiones de Leo llenaban de color y alegría su vida. Sentía una gran pasión por el boxeo, apreciaba el sonido profundo y melódico del saxofón y tenía un corazón especial para los animales. Era increíblemente habilidoso y podía reparar casi cualquier cosa, pero su mayor don era la manera en que hacía sentir a las personas. Leo era divertido, humilde y bondadoso—siempre listo con una broma, una sonrisa o una mano. Tenía la capacidad de iluminar cualquier lugar al que entrará, levantando el ánimo de quienes lo rodeaban sin siquiera proponérselo.
Leo será profundamente extrañado por sus padres, Rosa Velásquez y Gamaliel Pazos; sus hermanos, Natalia Pazos y Jonathan Pazos; y su novia, Jennifer Soto. También deja atrás a su familia extendida, innumerables amigos y todas las personas cuyas vidas fueron iluminadas por su presencia.Aunque su tiempo con nosotros fue demasiado corto, Leo vivió plenamente, amó profundamente y dejó una huella imborrable en cada alma que tocó. Aunque nuestros corazones están rotos, nos aferramos a la promesa de que lo volveremos a ver en el cielo. Su fe, su amor y su alegría permanecen como un testimonio de la bondad de Dios y de la belleza de una vida bien vivida.
"He peleado la buena batalla, he terminado la carrera, he guardado la fe." – 2 Timoteo 4:7
