Francisco “Pancho” Lazo Romero

Francisco “Pancho” Lazo Romero, 69, of Nixon, entered his eternal home on Friday, June 19th, 2026, surrounded by his family. He was the eldest of 12 children, son of Augustina Cervantes Romero and Francisco Gomez Lazo. He was born on August 18, 1956,in Dolores Hidalgo, Guanajuato, Mexico.

When he turned 18, he worked toward the opportunity to come to the United States. He had lots of ambition to pursue the American Dream, and through the years he accomplished that dream. He married the love of his life, Dolores (Alvarez) on November 19, 2005. Together they raised a family, and created a heart-warming home for family and friends.

Pancho was a man who proved that through hard work and his faith, anything was possible. He previously worked for Holmes Foods and his most recent place of employment was truck driving for Ventura Energy Services. His hands were rough from the years of hard work, but through his strong work ethic he was able to provide a good life for his family.

He enjoyed the outdoors; being outside in the open air and keeping busy around his ranch gave him a great sense of pride that he never took for granted. On his downtime, Pancho enjoyed solving crossword puzzles, watching YouTube videos and singing to his favorite music. He also had the biggest sweet tooth; everyday he enjoyed a sweet treat, especially homemade from his wife Dolores. Pancho also enjoyed the valued company of his four legged-companions; Riley, Max, Rosie, Chanel and Michi.

Pancho is survived by his mother Augustina Cervantes Romero, his loving wife Dolores (Alvarez) Lazo; daughters, Natasha Lazo and Teresa Salinas (Michael); son, Zachary Medina (Monica); six grandchildren, Sianna Ramirez, Brayden Ramirez, Michael Salinas, Jr., Zara Medina, Amira Medina and Zachary Emiliano Medina.
