Steven Altamirano, Tucson, AZ—The community mourns the loss of Steven Altamirano, who passed away on the morning of October 19, 2024, at the age of 53. Surrounded by his children, grandchildren, and loved ones, Steven took his final breath in the home of his daughter, Erica Altamirano, who had been his dedicated caretaker during his battle with kidney failure.
Steven was diagnosed with renal failure in 2021 and fought bravely for three years. Despite his struggles, he never lost his sense of humor, often teasing those around him with a playful smile. His unique ability to bring laughter to those he loved will be deeply missed.
Steven had a love for motorcycles and lived with the heart of a cowboy, embodying strength and freedom. His family is now organizing a special farewell to honor his memory, with a fundraiser titled “Steven Altamirano’s Ride into Heaven” led by Savannah Fontes Altamirano. This effort aims to provide Steven with the peaceful rest he deserves.
So far, many have shown their support through heartfelt donations. Karen Vasquez contributed $50, Mark Wilkinson gave $100, Liam Bachelier offered $30, and Mercedes Ochoa kindly donated $100. These contributions help the family manage funeral expenses and honor Steven’s life in the way he loved most.
On Facebook, Brenda Garcia shared a touching message: "Rip Steve!" as many continue to express their sadness and support for the Altamirano family.
We send our deepest sympathies to Steven’s family and friends during this difficult time. May his soul rest in peace, and may his family find comfort in the love and memories shared.
