Aunika Francine Maes, age 18, went to meet her Heavenly Father on Tuesday, May 2, 2023. Aunika was born on August 15, 2004, in Clovis, NM to parents Marie Pacheco and Joey Maes.
Aunika was known to many as “Muff” and she loved being referred to as such – this name was given to her by her mother as a child, for she was the Love Muffin who gave everyone tons of love! Aunika was known by her friends and family to be adventurous, spontaneous, playful, funny, smart, and loyal. Aunika loved softball, music, The Office, dogs, and all things beauty – nails, hair, skin, makeup and fashion. Aunika was set to graduate from the Cosmetology program at South Plains College in Levelland, TX on May 12, 2023. Her parents have accepted her diploma on her behalf. Aunika planned to work in the beauty industry while pursuing more education to become a teacher, as Aunika had an extreme love for children.
