Brian Catanach

Brian L. Catanach, 36, of Santa Fe, New Mexico, passed away peacefully, surrounded by his family, on June 24, 2024.

Brian was born on March 20, 1988, to Ronald and Erlinda Catanach in Santa Fe, NM. He was preceded in death by his grandmother, Della Watson; his grandfather, Noah Watson; his uncle, Leroy Watson; and his cousin, Destiny Herrera. 

He is survived by his loving wife, Felicia Catanach; his sons, Dominic Catanach, Zayden Lucero, and Arian Catanach; his daughters, Aubri Catanach and Aribella Catanach; his parents, Ronald and Erlinda Catanach; his brother, Kevin Catanach; his sister, Stacy Catanach; and his brother-in-law, Nicholas Trumbley.

Brian was a devoted husband, a loving father, and a cherished son and brother. Family was his world.  He treasured all the time he spent with his kids. Brian had a wonderful sense of humor and delighted in making others happy. His contagious smile could light up any room he entered. With a generous heart, he often sacrificed his own needs to help others.

Brian's love for performing began when he received his first karaoke machine for Christmas at age 6. This passion continued through his entertaining social media reels. Despite facing many challenges in his short but full life, Brian always emerged stronger and more resilient. His strength and determination inspired many, and he will be deeply missed by all who knew him.

Life can change in an instant, but love endures.

Brian will forever be in our hearts.

“The Lord is close to the brokenhearted; he rescues those whose spirits are crushed.” 

Psalm 34:18
