Kingston Richard Sanchez

“Forever in My Heart”

Our Heavenly Father stretched out his arms to embrace the spirit of our loving Son, Brother, Nephew, Cousin and Friend.  He was greeted above by his grandfather, Greg Nevarez; grandfather, David A. Alavid; great-grandmother, Angelina T. Sanchez; great-grandfather, Santiago “Jimmy” Sanchez; his great-aunt, Amanda Sanchez; great-aunt, Tracy Sanchez, and many other aunts, uncles and cousins.

Kingston Richard Sanchez was brought into this world on October 14, 2009, to Crystal and Richard Sanchez.  “King” attended Sandridge Junior High School where he excelled in the sciences and mathematics.  King’s charismatic personality was contagious.  His smile always made others smile.  He was a good hearted young man who was admired by his peers, friends, family, cousins, teachers, and anyone who came across his path.

King was a positive and exciting role model for the neighborhood kids.  I never knew a 12 year old who wanted to work a summer job.  Early summer mornings, the kids in the neighborhood would gather at the front door, waiting for King to take them to the skate park.  Any money he made, he would use to buy those kids drinks and snacks. 

King had a love for cars…sports cars, lowriders and Mazda Miatas.  He had a love for the outdoors and enjoyed skateboarding at the local skate park.  He was a gamer too, with his PS4 in hand.  His love for Anime was out of this world.  Every day of Kingston’s life was an adventure.  He loved spending his free time with family and friends. He adored his niece, Jazalayah, and his nephew, Joseph. He was such a perfect kid.

King definitely wore his heart on his sleeve.  He hated for anyone to be sad.  He was always cracking jokes and instigating…we could always count on King to put a smile on our faces.  He will be missed tremendously.

Kingston’s life will always be cherished by his mother, Crystal Marie Sanchez and his “bonus dad”, Cornelius J. Flores; his father, Richard G. M. Sanchez and his stepmother, Ladaysha Hairston; his siblings who were beyond blessed to have him: Julian, Zabian, Da’nessia, RiqueeAnne, Zephaniah, Da’Khari and five bonus brothers; and many more family and friends.

“Gone too soon, my Son-shine…NO CAPP!”
