Ignacio V Gonzales

At the age of 18, Ignacio was drafted and served in the US Navy from 1944-1969. He was a veteran of WWII, the Korean War and the Vietnam War. He was so proud to serve his country.

As a child of the depression era, he became the “man of the house” at the age of 9. He worked with his mother in a pecan factory and shined shoes until he was old enough to get a grownup job.

Our Lord blessed him with the biggest heart full of love. He lived a beautiful life showing his love of God and family by the way he lived, always putting others before himself.
