Steve Clyde Barela, 65, of Grand Junction, passed away on September 28, 2018 at St. Mary’s Hospital.
Born under a Palisade peach tree; he was a very brave, proud, happy and outgoing man. He met his wife, Tracy Hearon-Barela, of 32 years, when mutual friends, love at first sight and steak breakfast brought them together; they were inseparable.
They brought a beautiful daughter into this world, Carol Barela, where he and his wife lived, in his last days, along with granddaughters: Maria and Angelina; and soon to be born grandson, Davion.
In his time on this earth, with us, he has survived may tribulations, including: three foster homes and a work-related fall where he shattered both of his legs.
He had two children prior to this time in his life: Gerald Barela and Beverly Barela(deceased), as well as three granddaughters: Marissa, Marina and Mariah; he also had an adopted daughter, Laura Rosado, and two grandsons.
He was loved and respected, by many, and will be deeply missed.
