Richard Gonzales

Richard was a family man, cherishing every moment he spent with his family and friends, never missing a chance to show them affection and enjoy life together. An avid motorcyclist, Richard thoroughly enjoyed taking long rides around town or through the countryside; he adored his motorcycle with the same enthusiasm as he loved his 8 grandchildren and dogs, every one of whom was precious to him.

He was the kindest, funniest, most loveable person one could ever meet. A genuine soul, he was equally hard-working as he was generous, never hesitating to lend a helping hand for anybody and everybody. He was kind-hearted to all and beloved by all who knew him.

He is preceded in death by his father Cesareo Trinidad Gonzales, mother Guadalupe Rodriguez, stepmother Josefina Garcia, sisters, Carmen Gomez and Sara Gonzales, and brothers Billy Ortiz and Noah Scott "Scotty" Gonzales (November 2024).

Richard is survived by his longtime partner Gloria Skwierczynski, their 4 children, Victor, Cene, and Selena of Grand Prairie and Nicholas from Waco, siblings Roy Gonzales, Ray Gonzales, Joe Ortiz and Fatima Ortiz, and 8 grandchildren.
