Hector was a veteran, and served in the United States Army from 1950-1952 with the rank of Corporal during the Korean Conflict. After his military service he was employed at Farah Manufacturing Co. for over 37 years starting as a production mechanic and retiring as a Machine shop machinist Supervisor. Hector was a proud patriot, a loyal employee, but most of all a dedicated father, brother, and a friend to all he came across. He always had a smile and welcomed all that came by the house. Hector enjoyed telling stories about his past experiences to everyone. His providers always made his favorite foods and had his snacks ready for him. He loved cooking breakfast for his family on Sundays, listening to music and playing his guitar, dancing with his wife and daughters, watching old Mexican movies, going to boxing matches and always supporting his favorite football team, the Dallas Cowboys.

“Our Dad” will be greatly missed by his children, and

(Great and Great, Great grandchildren) nieces and nephews.

Dad, you left a wonderful legacy,  and the kitchen will always be full just like you wanted it to be!

In Loving Memory of our Beloved Delia Montes Delia Montes, age 92, passed away peacefully, surrounded by loved ones. A devoted mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, she is survived by her four sons, eleven grandchildren, and twenty-two great-grandchildren. Delia was the heart of her family—a quiet force of love and loyalty. She was a beautiful mix of strength and softness—stern when needed, but always leading with unconditional love. Her presence was steady, her heart vast, and her legacy lives on in the many lives she touched. She will be deeply missed and forever remembered.
