Raymond Trevino Delgado, Jr., entered his eternal home on Sunday, March 29, 2026 at Ascension All Saints Hospital in Racine, Wisconsin. Raymond was born January 13, 1951 in Taylor, Texas, the son of Raymond and Lydia (NEE: Trevino) Delgado, Sr. Raymond was raised by his grandparents Juanita and Jose Trevino after the passing of his mother at a young age. On October 29, 1984 he married the love of his life, Irene Rodriguez. Raymond was the owner of “Carpet Installations by Raymond” for 57 years, only being 16 years old when he discovered his passion for flooring and eventually passing the business over to his sons. He was also known as Wimpy The Clown, entertaining his friends at events and parades by performing stunts. Raymond was a jack of all Trades, taking on various jobs including videography, but always willing to give a helping hand for anyone in need. He really enjoyed repairing cars and barbecuing brisket. He loved his family and adored his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. He was a God-Fearing man and loved preaching the Good News and was an avid member of Stand On His Word Ministry. He had a passion for traveling and always looked forward to enjoying Louie Mueller’s Barbecue in Taylor. Raymond had five children from his previous marriage with Rosalie Vargas and took in two children from his current wife Irene Rodriguez. Together they were blessed with two more children, becoming a blended family of nine. He had many good friends and acquaintances, many from his flooring business and continued to spread the word of the Lord to whomever he was given the opportunity. He suffered with his health since 2007, but the Lord was gracious to spare him to continue spreading His word. He loved the homeless and provided food, shelter and guidance taking many people under his wing and his profession of flooring and carpentry. Raymond will be greatly missed by his wife Irene, his children Margot (Raymond) Vasguez, Rene Delgado, Michael (Sabrina) Delgado, Monica Delgado, Kris (Ana) Delgado, Regina (Bruce) Rachal, Leon (Vanessa) Reyes, Lydia Delgado and Ernest Delgado.
