Talon Evan Nunez

March 30, 1990 — May 31, 2021

Talon Nuñez, 31, was taken from us too soon, on May 31, 2021.

Talon was born March 30, 1990 in Fort Huachuca, AZ. His family later moved to the Florence/Coolidge area. As he grew up, Talon participated in all the community sports teams from swim team, to Pop Warner football to karate. It was here that he made life-long friends and memories. Talon grew up roping, shoeing horses and could ride a horse like a true cowboy. He attended Coolidge High School and graduated from Coolidge High School where he met and wooed the love of his life.

After graduation, Talon worked various jobs; including well drilling, welding, ginning and farrier. He then started working for Core Civic at the Red Rock Correctional Facility, a job he loved. He loved the camaraderie, the fact that it was never boring and most of all, he loved his coworkers. He promoted to Correctional Sergeant, much to his mother’s pride; and promptly assumed the responsibility of his “work family”. He loved and enjoyed working with them so much.


Talon was devoted to Klarissa, his daughters, family and friends. He had many friends and could win anyone over with his charm and humor. He liked to work hard and play hard; he made sure the people around him knew how extraordinary they were. He was a free spirit who let his light shine even on the darkest days. We will miss that light; he will be forever loved and never forgotten.


Left to cherish his memory is his sweetheart Klarissa Godoy, her parents Ray & Monia Godoy Valencia, Angel, Raina & RJ as well as the rest of the Ray & Monia clan of Coolidge, Az
