Luis G. Cavazos

He was a loving husband to Esther Guajardo Cavazos of Pflugerville, Texas, to whom he will meet in Heaven along with his parents and his beloved grandson, Christopher Mosqueda. The last surviving sibling of eight, Luis will be welcomed by his brothers: Frank Cavazos and Emilio Cavazos; sisters: Estela DeLeon, Canderlaria Klass, Constance Nuz, Micaela Gonzales and Dora Guerrero.

A life-long Catholic and member of St. Louis King of France Catholic Church, Luis was a hardworking, dependable, strong man. He cared for those closest to him dearly and at an early age learned to provide by picking cotton and corn on the family farm. Luis later enlisted in the United States Army in July of 1942, proudly serving his country as a World War II veteran.

Having a passion for cars, and owning numerous different models throughout his life, Luis incorporated his passion into his work. In July of 1956, Luis began his 29 years of service in the Automotive Section of Sears, Roebuck and Company to later retire in August, 1985.

Luis enjoyed hunting, fishing, and spending time with his grandson, Chris. An avid breakfast goer and family man, Luis was quick to make friends and keep lasting friends throughout the 99 years of his life.

Luis is survived by his only daughter, Mary Emma and son-in-law, Carlos Mosqueda, alongside other numerous family members whom will miss him dearly.
