Marc Manuel Naranjo

Marc Naranjo, known affectionately as Gord, passed away on March 5, 2026, at the age of 53. He will be remembered for his loyal heart, his goofy sense of humor, and the deep love he held for his family. Gord had a special way of making people laugh, and his playful spirit brought light and joy to those around him. Protective of those he loved, he was always there to offer guidance, share wisdom, or simply provide support, and his advice often stayed with people long after the conversation ended.

One of the greatest loves of his life was his mother, Carole, with whom he shared a truly special bond. Though tough and strong, Gord’s softness shone through when it came to his daughter Letti. His love for her was constant, unconditional, and evident to everyone who knew him.

Gord is survived by his daughter Leticia (Nathan) Maes, his mother Carole Espinosa Naranjo, his grandchildren Alejandro, Nathan Jr., Lewis, Summer, and Myles, his siblings Tami (Jack) Abbott, Mel, James (Che), and Paul (Christina), his nephews Mario (Mod) Naranjo and Javier Perez, his nieces Felicia Naranjo, Christina (Scott) Perez, Alyssa Naranjo, and Samantha (Diana) Ramirez, his grandmother Oralie Dominguez, and his significant other Leslie Borrego. He was preceded in death by his father Willie Naranjo, his brother Marty Naranjo, his grandparents Mel and Simona Naranjo, and James and Mary Martinez. His presence will be deeply missed, but his spirit will live on in the memories of his laughter, his lessons, and the unwavering love he shared with his family.
