John Lee Marcus Archuletta passed away peacefully in the arms of his wife Janice at The INN Between on Monday July 1, 2016. He was 57 years old. John was born in Paso Robles, California on May 18, 195, to Marcus and Gaby Archuletta who both preceded him in death.
John is survived by his wife of 13 years, Janice, his sisters Gwen and Carla, his brother Anthony and several nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his sister Nina and nephew Marcus Whitehead.
John is remembered fondly as being a fantastic oldest brother, son, uncle, cousin and father. He was a devoted husband and would often end his day at work and cook a dinner to take to Janice and help her at her job. He liked to have a crisp, raw jalapeno at every meal, breakfast included.
John worked as both a laborer and mechanic and had a variety of skills that enabled him to easily pick up any job that was needed. John and Janice lived at The INN Between for 40 days, arriving in May. Although his time with us was short, we will remember him as being friendly and polite. He received excellent care from Janice, who attended to his every need. In the end, he left this world in her loving embrace.
