Apollinaris Vasquez

Born September 1, 1958 in Dallas, TX to Apolinar Vasquez and Carmen Negrete. Passed away peacefully on November 14, 2023 surrounded by his loved ones at his home in Cedar Hill, TX.

Paul was a God fearing man loved by many who have met him. A wonderful Husband, Father, Grandpa (Popo) and Brother. He enjoyed cooking, dancing, spending time with family and friends but most of all he had a passion for leading people to God. He impacted many lives with his sense of humor and the love he gave to everyone who crossed his path. He was an active member in Soldiers for Christ leading everyone to the Lord, as well as serving in hospitality for Trinity Christian Church. He was a hard working man in all of the industries he experienced in his lifetime.

His main dedication aside from serving the Lord, Paul was a dedicated husband of 25 years to his wife Rebecca, a father to their 6 children, sons, Paul, Jr., Ricky and Matthew; daughters, Sonia, Ana and Samantha; he was a wonderful, silly grandpa "popo" to their 9 grandchildren, Elayna, Ansley, Alexa, Ayden, AJ, Andrew, Ricky, Jr., Christian, Anthony, Jr.

He dedicated his life to his family and will be tremendously missed by all who have met him.

He was preceded in death by his mother, Carmen Negrete, father Apolinar Vasquez, his twin sister Carmen Vasquez Martinez, and his brother, Carlos Vasquez.
