Jeffrey Jeantette

In Loving Memory of Jeffrey Jeantette August 16, 1977 – April 2, 2025 went to his eternal reward far too soon, our beloved Jeffrey Jeantette passed away peacefully on April 2, 2025, surrounded by family. Born August 16, 1977, Jeffrey lived life with passion and joy. A bright light who burned wild, hot, and fast—too fast for those of us left behind. Jeffrey was known for his boundless energy, sharp wit, and deep love for the outdoors. Whether fishing, hunting, or just making people laugh, he filled every room—and every moment—with his big heart, bright smile, and irresistible charm. He had a gift for bringing people together, often around a grill or a shared plate, where his love of feeding others was simply another way, he showed how deeply he cared. He is preceded in death by his father, Peter Jeantette; grandparents Eliseo Miera, Carolina R. Cortez, Jose Jeantette, and Teresina Jeantette; and beloved cousins, aunts, and uncles. He is survived by his mother, Cindy Jeantette; sisters Tabatha and Carolyn Jeantette; brothers Peter Jeantette and Francisco Jeantette (Stephanie); and his partner Yolanda Martinez. Jeffrey’s legacy lives on in his children, Mikaela Ortega, Drake Jeantette, and Kameron Jeantette who each carry a piece of his fire, his love, and his light. Though his time with us was far too short, Jeffery lived fully, laughed deeply, and loved without hesitation. He will be missed beyond words and remembered forever by those who were lucky enough to know him.

Rosary will be recited on Saturday April 12, 2025 at 9am, followed by the funeral mass at 10am at San Francisco De Asis Catholic Church, with burial to follow at the Talpa Cemetery.

The family of Jeffrey Jeantette has entrusted the care of their loved one to the caring staff of DeVargas Funeral Home of Taos. 866-657-4019 www.devargastaos.com
