Adrian Manuel Puente

Adrian Manuel Puente, 21, of Houston, Texas, passed away peacefully on August 9, 2026. Born on November 5, 2005 in Houston, Adrian brought joy, love, and light into the lives of everyone who had the privilege of knowing him.

Adrian was full of life, always wearing a smile and bringing happiness wherever he went. He was a family-oriented young man who cherished the people he loved and treasured the time he spent creating memories with them. One of his favorite things was gathering with family and loved ones to share and enjoy seafood boils, moments filled with laughter, love, and togetherness that will forever be remembered.

Adrian was a loving father to his beloved daughter, Kataleya Noemi Puente, and a devoted partner to his girlfriend, Angela Perez. As an only child, Adrian held a special and irreplaceable place in the hearts of his family. He was deeply loved and cherished by those closest to him.

Adrian is survived by his loving parents, Edgar Puenten and Charlotte Barba; his grandparents, Juanita Puente and Guadalupe Puente; his beloved daughter, Kataleya Noemi Puente; his girlfriend, Angela Perez; his aunt and mother figure, Mirna Puente, who held a particularly special place in Adrian’s life; and his many aunts, uncles, and cousins who loved and adored him dearly.

Although Adrian’s life was far too short, the love he gave, his bright smile, and the memories he created will remain forever in the hearts of everyone who knew and loved him. His presence will be deeply missed, but his memory will live on through his daughter, his family, his loved ones, and everyone whose life he touched.

We ask that you remember Adrian not for the way his life ended, but for the way he lived, for his smile, his love for his family, his joyful spirit, and the profound impact he had on the lives of those who had the pleasure of knowing him.

Forever loved, forever missed, and forever in our hearts.
