Manuel J. Pacheco, 61, of Merrimack, NH passed away unexpectedly on Thursday, March 14th , 2024, at Cambridge Hospital in Cambridge, MA.

Born in Cambridge, MA on October 2nd, 1962, one of four children to the late Jose Pacheco and Josephine (Buccello) Azor. He was raised in Cambridge, MA and graduated from Cambridge Rindge and Latin High School.

Manuel was a Master Electrician and owned his own company, Pacheco Electric, for many years until he was involved in a motorcycle accident in 2006. He enjoyed spending time with his family, taking motorcycle rides with his sister and brother and always offering wisdom to his children and answers to whatever was presented to him.  He was always smiling and teasing his girls and loved them with all his heart. He could fix anything put in front of him, he was truly a master of all.  He enjoyed restoring his 1989 Pontiac Trans Am with his son Manuel Pacheco Jr and taking late night rides.  He was a self-taught musician and passed down his talents to his son, Manuel. They had a band called "Tomorrow never Knows" and traveled to the Beatles Festival each year to compete and play with other friends.  He would always put others in front of himself and help with whatever was needed and never asked for anything in return.  He was loved by all that crossed his path.

Along with his parents, Manuel was pre-deceased by a sister-in-law, Stella Pacheco.

He will be forever loved and remembered by his wife of almost 40 years, Adriana (Primavera) Pacheco; three children, Nicole Pacheco, Tina Pacheco and her partner Brianna Oliveira and Manuel Pacheco Jr. and his partner Liza Bon; three siblings, Rosemarie Sousa and her partner Linda Miller, Lisa Pacheco and her partner Whitney Baron and Joe Pacheco, along with many nieces and nephews.
