Efrain Gutierrez, born in Brownsville, Texas, spent his childhood years in Matamoros, Tamaulipas. He graduated in 1980 from James Pace High School.
He worked many years at Basic Industries of South Texas and Brand Energy where he was a project manager and superintendent, and he also owned several businesses throughout his life. He was respected for his leadership, hard work, and dedication in his career and in every other aspect of his life.
He was a loving husband and father to his wife and children. He was a handsome, charismatic man with a playful personality who left a lasting impression on those who had the privilege to know him. He will be remembered as the best dancer, the one who was the first and the last person on the dance floor.
So many people were able to experience his generosity and selflessness, even in his hardest times. Efrain was a friend to any and everyone he came across. He will be especially remembered by those who love him when eating popcorn, rocky road ice cream, tacos de pastor, and watching a 49ers game. His kind smile will forever be engraved in our hearts.
