Bobby Isaac Chaidez

Bobby Isaac Chaidez born February 17, 1938 passed away January 26, 2012. Bobby married the love of his life Sheila on October 22, 1960. They went on to have four boys together: Chester, Benjamin, Gilbert, and Brian. Bobby worked at Pacific Southern Foundry for 28 years and then went on to work for Grimmway Farms for 20 years where he retired from. Bobby Chaidez was many things to many people. He was a husband, father, grandfather, great grandfather, uncle and brother. There was no distinction between family and friends; everyone was always welcomed with open arms. When we think of Bobby we can't help but think of his smile that could light up a room. His laughter that always left a lasting impression. Bobby put his heart and soul into everything he did; whether it is adding onto his house, gardening, or sharing his knowledge with everyone he knows. He always kept busy working on projects and helping out family and friends. When he finally decided to take a break from working on his projects he loved to take the time to travel with his wife Sheila. It didn't matter whether it was a holiday or a weekend Bobby enjoyed barbequing and a nice night of playing cards with his family. At the end of the day you could find him relaxing in his recliner watching television with his two dogs Pico and Buttercup and wife Sheila by his side. The love and compassion he showed us, even though he is gone will forever remain in our hearts. Life will not be the same without him, he left a lasting impression upon all who knew him and will never be forgotten. Bobby is survived by wife: Sheila, sons: Chester, Benjamin, Gilbert, and Brian. Brothers: Sylvester, Ralph, Henry, Michael, and George. Sisters: Juanita and Georgia. 18 grandchildren: 5 great grandchildren. And his beloved dogs Pico and Buttercup.
