Abel Alejandro Abeyta Jr. Click here to listen to Funeral Recording On January 23, 2015 we unexpectedly lost our loving son, brother, uncle, cousin, boyfriend and friend to a massive heart attack at age 36. Abel Alejandro Abeyta Jr. was born on January 14, 1979 on Williams AFB, Chandler, AZ. He was such a genuine, accepting, patient, giving, positive man. He absolutely loved everything outdoors-golfing, hiking and biking in the mountains with his dogs. He made it a priority to attend, and even at times "side line officiate" his nephews sporting events. He was a diehard Steelers Nation, Utah Jazz and Yankee fan. Poor Abey Baby survived growing up with three LOVING sisters and one bathroom. His infectious laugh and gorgeous eyes would draw you in immediately. He loved spending all his time away from work with his soul mate, Michelle and her son, his special buddy Kanyon. He graduated from Ogden High School and attended Weber State University. He was proud of his Hispanic and Italian roots and all the food that came with it. He was preceded in death by his father, Abel Alejandro Abeyta Sr.; step-brother, John Allen Via and grandparents. He is survived by his Mom and Dad, Christine and William Via - AKA dog sitters; three loving sisters, Amanda (Jordan) Jeppson, Jennifer Davis, Becky (Jeremy) Dearden; 4 nephews, River, Kanyon, Luca and Baylor; two nieces, Saige and Isabella; soul mate, Michelle White and her son Kanyon; many aunts, uncles, cousins and last but definitely not least his 2 spoiled dogs, Chili and Mister. Many thanks to the first responders and McKay Dee emergency room staff.
