Reuben Hernandez passed away Wednesday, June 21, 2023 at age 61. Born December 21, 1961 in Castroville and attended SW High School. He was a man of many talents who enjoyed complex projects, music and electronics, preferably working alone.
He is survived by his daughter Natalia Hernandez (Alex) and children, sisters Odelia (Lilly) Rodriquez (Jerry), Berta Hernandez (Fred Garza), Rosemary Riso (Johnny- deceased), Elizabeth (Liz) Hernandez, and former wife Deane Hinson.
Reuben was preceded in death by his son Reuben Jr., parents Jerry Lazona Hernandez and Gloria Ybarra Hernandez, brother Jerry Hernandez.
Reuben enjoyed more than anything testifying about his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ to any and all people he encountered. He never met a stranger, loved all the animals that came into his life – they loved him back. He, as his friends and family know, revered the Beatles. We will miss you dearly, dude! Rock and roll!
Many thanks to Alamo Hospice and Margie Summers R.N. for all they did for Reuben. God bless them.
A memorial service will be held Saturday, July 29 at 10 a.m. in St. Andrews Catholic Church in Lytle (beside the US Post Office).
