Eduardo Chacon

The world was blessed with Eduardo Xavier Chacón on June 24, 2000, and we were robbed of him on April 28, 2024.

Eduardo was affectionately known as Dado, a nickname given to him by his older sister who couldn’t pronounce his name as a child. He was filled with love for those more vulnerable in life. He was an old soul in a young, childlike man’s body and therefore connected the most with the elderly and children with disabilities. He wanted to be their protector and voice and treated them all with the love and kindness he always yearned for. To realize that goal, he was in the process of finishing up his education at Collin Community College to become a therapist to help kids with autism.

Eduardo would want us to note that he had 3 A’s and 1 B! Dado was a lively and free soul and often leaped before he looked. He had many dreams and ambitions, and he was on his way to accomplish all of them. He enjoyed all aspects of life and was a simple man; life with a modest home on a plot of land with animals, video games, all kinds of food, and a Honda civic was all he wanted.

If there’s any lesson, we can take from Eduardo Chacon it’s to love everyone with a heart like Dado’s. Never give up on people and cherish family always. Do not be afraid to live life fully, to take chances, and always remember that every day is a new day! Dado wasn’t afforded the time to enjoy his purpose, aspirations, and his life and taken far too soon.

Let us all live a little more like Dado!

Eduardo is survived by his mother and stepfather Marivel Caliguire and Terence; father Jorge Eduardo Chacon; siblings Zamira Chacon, Karina Gomez, Lucio Gomez and Anna Caliguire and maternal grandmother Trinidad Sanson.
