    Javier Mercado

    August 5, 1957 - November 6, 2021

    Javier Mercado passed away on November 6, 2021. He was born on August 5, 1957 to Calixto and Rosemary Mercado in San Joaquin, CA. Javier joined the United States Marine Corps in August of 1974 and was honorably discharged in August of 1977. He then worked for the U.S Forest Service for over 20 years. He was apart of the Indigenous Warriors Flag Group and also, the Marine Corps League Fresno Detachment 014. He’s been with Making Spirits Bright for 28 years. Every year, around this time, he looked forward to volunteering with both Making Spirits Bright and Toy for Tots. It brought him so much joy to know he was helping others. When Javier wasn’t telling you one of his many stories, you could probably find him in the McDonald’s drive thru getting what to him was a fresh cup of joe or at home, in his recliner watching one of his western shows on grit tv. Javier is survived by his daughter Kristina (Mark) Noriega; stepsons Jason (Veronica) and Joey (Destiny) Armstrong granddaughters Marisa (Adam) Delavega; Adrianna (Rob “Leonardo”) Noriega; Makayla Armstrong; and Sage Armstrong; grandson Mark Noriega Jr; and his Great Grandchildren Jeremiah and Isabella Delavega. Services will be held Friday, November 19 at 2pm at the Chapel of the Light. In Lieu of Flowers Memorial donations may be made to the Indigenous Warriors Flag Group, Making Spirits Bright, or Toys for Tots.
