**Obituary for Raquel "Rocky" Celeste Crocker**

Raquel "Rocky" Celeste Crocker, born on June 2, 1972, in Gilroy, California, passed away peacefully on February 5, 2026, in Las Vegas, Nevada surrounded by her wife and sister in law. A beloved wife, sister, aunt, and friend, she leaves behind cherished memories for her family and all who knew her.

Rocky was the devoted wife of Angela Crocker and the proud sister of Burl Crocker and sister in law Krystal Crocker. She was an aunt to Cannon, Ariyonna, and James. She was also a proud sister in law to Mario and  Ixchell Gonzales. She loved her fur babies Sophie, Little One and Gizmo!

A graduate of Gilroy High School and Mason High School, Rocky's journey led her to serve her country with honor as a helicopter mechanic in the U.S. Army, where she developed a remarkable skill set and a sense of pride in her work. Following her military service, Rocky continued her career in aviation as a mechanic for Maverick Helicopters, demonstrating her exceptional technical abilities and commitment to excellence.

Known for her quick wit and sharp comebacks, Rocky had a personality that could light up a room. She was kind, generous, funny, loyal, curious, honest, and considerate—a true friend to many. Her interests were as diverse and lively as her spirit. She had a deep appreciation for anything related to Judy Garland, was an avid reader, and had an insatiable curiosity that led her to research various subjects. Rocky found joy in unique hobbies, such as chain maille crafting, lockpicking, comics, collecting Rubik's cubes, and making various items out of paracord. She was also a die-hard Raiders fan, proudly cheering for her team.

Rocky's life will be commemorated in a private memorial, where her loved ones will gather to share stories, celebrate her legacy, and honor the remarkable impact she had on all their lives. Though she may no longer be with us in person, the countless memories and love she shared will forever remain in the hearts of those who were fortunate to know her. 

In this time of sorrow, may we remember Raquel "Rocky" Celeste Crocker for her radiant spirit, unwavering loyalty, and the joy she brought to our lives.
