T was born in Freeport, Texas to Beatrice and Tiofilo Torres and had 3 brothers .
At age 17, T enlisted in the U.S. Army and left to combat battle in the Vietnam War, and shared many stories of that era.
He truly was a proud Vietnam Vet ! After the war he returned to his home in Texas and later ventured by way of Colorado and Washington to make his home in California.
His legacy is left behind with all of his wonderful children and grandchildren and his "one and only" of 29 years, Trish.
He lived his life with fierce love of family, friends and music and exuded kindness to all.
His music, writings and photo memories will always remain with us .
We ask that you remember T with the Rock "n" Roll, the Wind in your hair, and free Hippie Spirit !
