Freddie J. Estrada, 21, a resident of Las Cruces, NM formerly of Silver City entered eternal rest Wednesday, January 20, 2016 in Arenas Valley, NM.

He was born February 23, 1994 in Silver City to the late Frederick R. Estrada and Nadine Norero.

My gentle giant, my baby, my son, he was a daddy, brother, uncle and cousin, will be forever 21. He loved being a daddy to his Mateo and his sister Nikki. He was my entertainer, he rapped his life. He was a jack of all trades and was a hard worker. He loved his brothers and sister from another mother. His Homies were a very important part of his life. He was a very loyal friend; with not one stingy bone in his body. He had finally formed a relationship with his Grandpa Felix, with his grandma Sally and Uncle Steve. My Freddie will be so deeply and forever missed, and now I have to figure out life without him; but my Freddie is now resting and enjoying his reunion with his Dad.

Freddie is survived by his mother, Nadine N. Estrada of Las Cruces; one son, Matthew Nathaniel Rivera of Meadow, TX; a step-daughter, Nikki Rivera of Meadow, TX; paternal grandmother, Sally Polanco; maternal grandfather, Felix Norero; three brothers, Steven Norero of Las Cruces; Eric Lopez and family of Silver City; Isaac Chavez of Silver City; one sister, Vanessa Gonzales and husband Jaime and family of Las Cruces; mother of his children, Irene Rivera of Meadow, TX; special friend, Eva Pacheco of Las Cruces; he is also survived by aunts, Lisa Norero of Deming; Lillian Ellars and family of Silver City; uncles, Felix Norero Jr. (Liz) of Bayard; Steve Estrada (Betty) and family of Gila; special sister, Abby Rose Sanchez of Las Cruces; several nieces and nephews; special nephew, Antonio Norero.
