Celedonio "Cele" Chavarin Contreras


10.21.1966 - 07.12.2024

Born in Tulancingo de Bravo, Hidalgo to parents Silvestre Chavarin and Maria del Socorro Contreras. 

Cele moved to the United States in 1989 and resided in Arizona for the remainder of his life. He worked in construction, but his passion for cooking and eating good food led him to work in various local restaurants in Arizona and New York. Cele enjoyed dancing as much as he did food and was always first on the dance floor at parties and gatherings. He enjoyed simple pleasures and worked hard for his dreams despite deteriorating health due to kidney failure. He will be remembered and greatly missed for his fighting spirit, generosity, and sense of humor.


Romans 8:18

"I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us."

Nacido en Tulancingo de Bravo, Hidalgo de padres Silvestre Chavarin y María del Socorro Contreras. 

Cele se mudó a los Estados Unidos en 1989 y residió en Arizona por el resto de su vida. Trabajó en la construcción, pero su pasión por cocinar y comer buena comida lo llevó a trabajar en varios restaurantes locales en Arizona y Nueva York. A Cele le gustaba bailar tanto como la comida y siempre era el primero en la pista de baile en fiestas y reuniones. Disfrutaba de placeres sencillos y trabajaba duro por sus sueños a pesar del deterioro de su salud debido a una insuficiencia renal. Será recordado y extrañado mucho por su espíritu de lucha, generosidad y sentido del humor.


Romanos 8:18

"Considero que nuestros sufrimientos actuales no son dignos de comparación con la gloria que se revelará en nosotros".
