Louis A. Sanchez, 68, passed away Tuesday, August 8, 2017 at his home in Alliance.

He was born on November 26, 1948 in Alliance to Paul and Verna (Boyer) Sanchez.

Louis worked as a dispatcher and driver retiring from Bauer Pre-Mix after 30 years of service. Louie had many hobbies, but his favorite was Bingo.  He also loved to hunt and fish and go camping and watch old westerns on TV.  One of his favorite things to do was to work on his lawn and tinker with vehicles. He spent a lot of time on scratch cards and it didn’t matter if all he won back was what he spent on them. He had a really great sense of humor with a twist of sarcasm.  Louis was loved by many as to know him was to love him.  He was always willing to help out any way he could whether it be family or friends.  He had a very loving heart.  He loved his family, especially his grandchildren.
