Othon Miguel Barraza, 52 years old passed away on November 4th, 2024 in Scottsdale, Arizona. He grew up in a small town called Wellton. A place he loved and called home. He also lived his adult life in Mesa, Arizona where he was an avid ASU Sun Devil and Chicago Bears fan.

One of six siblings, Othon was a man who was adored by both his family and his friends, whether they were from his childhood or his coworkers. Othon loved his family and if you asked him what the most important thing to him was, his answer would always be "Family."

He had the largest heart, was charming, witty, strong-willed, and dedicated. People were attracted to him because of his infectious personality. He was the focus of attention whenever he was around. Othon brought people together to share tales, laugh, and cry over priceless memories.

Othon began his career at Boeing at an early age and worked as Government Security for 30 years. Like his father, he worked hard, and his family was very proud of him. Although he will sorely be missed, he will always be in our hearts.

He is survived by his fiancé Maria Ornelas, sisters Alma Delia Barraza, Patty Barraza, Shelly(Benito Sauceda), Dacia(Donovan Madrid), nephews Ben Justin Sauceda, Santo and Carlos Boaz and nieces Micaela and Karlie Boaz.
