Francisco “Panchito” Mozqueda Garcia, 85, of Grand Island, NE, died Monday, March 8, 2021, at CHI Health St. Francis, surrounded by his loving family.

Panchito was born June 11, 1935, in Villachuato, Michoacan, Mexico. He was the son of Gumercindo Mozqueda and Evarista Garcia. He married Angela Guevara Ramirez in Mexico on October 8, 1958 where they created a humble home. Panchito first immigrated to the United States in the late 1970’s where he worked as a field worker in California. He traveled to and from Mexico until making Grand Island his home in 1992. He was employed with Monfort Packing Plant (currently known as JBS) until retiring in 2005.

Panchito was extremely hard working. He was proud to support his wife and children. Even though he never learned how to read and write, that was never an obstacle for him. He loved watching baseball and action movies, and loved playing the board game “Coyote”. He enjoyed music by his favorite artist Las Jilguerillas. He was extremely generous, always willing to lend a helping hand. He was a joker possessing a wonderful sense of humor, winning the hearts of those who met him.

Francisco will be missed by his wife, Angela of Mexico.

14 children, 31 grandchildren, 29 great grandchildren and one sister.

He is preceded in death by his parents, a daughter, Martha, one grandchild, Javier, one great grandchild, Jocelyn, and two brothers and two sisters.

Panchito will be interred in his home country of Mexico at a later date.
