After graduating, he fought fires for the Bureau of Indian Affairs, worked construction, and recently received his certificate in bartending, which he wanted to pursue as a career.
Mr. Arcos' passion was the outdoors, hunting, fishing, camping, hiking, pine nut picking with the elders and woodcutting for the family.
He enjoyed doing these things with family and friends. Friends said he was always there for anyone who needed a hand or asked his advice.
He is survived by brothers, Jose M. Arcos and Raymond Nevers; sisters Antoinette and Olivia Arcos; nephews, J.J., Martin, Daniel; nieces Liliana and Leona; grandmother Justine Koos of Gardnerville; uncle John Koos; aunt Charlene Nevers Higuera.
