Mr. Mendoza enjoyed listening to the oldies or old school and Christian oldies music. He loved playing golf, horseshoes, and even rooting for his favorite football team, the San Francisco 49ers. He loved his children and talking or seeing his grandchildren, they were his heart. He is remembered for his smile, his humor, and handyman ways, and will be dearly missed.
He is survived by his brothers, Brian Davis Sr. of Casa Blanca, Arizona, Christopher, Anthony, Gregory and Angelo Mendoza of Goodyear, Arizona. His children, Stephanie Mendoza of Maricopa, Arizona, Michelle Alvarez, Danielle and Jose Mendoza of Casa Grande, Arizona, Kiko Balderrama, Danny Mendoza Jr. of Goodyear Village, Arizona, and Shaelene Manuel of Santan, AZ, and 31 grandchildren.
He is preceded in death by his parents Joseph and Brenda Mendoza, his two daughters Edwina Paul Cruz and Jenell Renee Mendoza, and his grandson Andre Alvarez.
