In Loving Memory
Juanita “Janie”Marroquin Musquiz
June 16, 1947 - January 26, 2026

It is with shattered hearts, profound sadness, and tears that words cannot fully explain as the Musquiz and Marroquin Families share the passing of their beloved matriarch, Janie Marroquin Musquiz, who at the blessed age of 78, was called home into the loving and eternal embrace of Our Heavenly Father in Heaven on January 26, 2026, surrounded by the love, prayers, and tender presence of her cherished family.

Janie was born on June 16, 1947, in Corpus Christi, Texas, the beloved daughter of Miguel Marroquin and Enriqueta Campos Marroquin. From her earliest days, Janie carried within her a deep kindness, a servant’s heart, and a quiet strength that would shape not only her own life but the lives of countless others who were blessed to know her. Janie was a devoted Catholic, a woman of unwavering faith where she faithfully served as a youth minister. Janie’s faith was not just something she practiced, it was also something she lived, breathed, and shared with everyone around her. For more than 47 years, Janie served her community as a Licensed Vocational Nurse, dedicating her life to caring for others with tenderness, patience, and extraordinary compassion. She did not simply treat patients, she also loved them, prayed for them, and held their hands through moments of fear, pain, and uncertainty. Janie’s calling was a ministry, and her gentle presence brought comfort to countless souls during their most vulnerable moments. Janie spent most of her life in Corpus Christi, Texas, where her home was a sanctuary of warmth, laughter, prayer, and the comforting aroma of her beloved baking. She found joy in the simple, beautiful things in life, like preparing sweet treats for her family, gathering loved ones around the table, and creating memories that would last forever. Above all else, Janie’s greatest joy was her family, who were her pride, her purpose, and the light of her life. She was a devoted and faithful wife, a nurturing and selfless mother, a loyal sister, a cherished grandmother, and a dear friend. Janie’s laughter could fill a room, her hugs could heal a broken heart, and her words of wisdom carried the gentle authority of a woman who had lived a life rooted in faith and love. Janie often taught by example, showing her family what it meant to love unconditionally, to serve humbly, and to trust in God through every season of life.

Janie now rejoins Our Heavenly Father in Heaven as she is once again reunited with her beloved parents, Miguel Marroquin and Enriqueta Campos Marroquin, and her brother, Reynaldo Marroquin. One can only imagine the joy and tears of that heavenly reunion, the embrace of a daughter returning home, the laughter and love restored beyond time, pain, and separation. What a glorious and beautiful moment it must have been as they welcomed Janie at the gates of Heaven, where sorrow is no more and love reigns forever.

She leaves behind a legacy of love that will never fade. Janie will be forever cherished by her devoted husband of 57 years, Juan Musquiz III, whose life was deeply intertwined with hers in love, faith, and shared devotion. She is survived by her beloved daughters, Sylvia (Ty) Harris and Elizabeth Bean, who carry her heart, her strength, and her faith within them. She is also survived by her brothers, Reynaldo and Frank; her sisters, Esmeralda and Oralia; and her precious grandchildren, Belia (Darion) Fuentes, Malina Harris, Luke Bean, and cherished great grandchildren Alex Fuentes, Leo Fuentes, and Zoe Fuentes, who were her greatest treasures and the joy of her later years. She also leaves behind numerous nieces, nephews, extended relatives, and countless friends whose lives were touched by her kindness, wisdom, and love.
Though her physical presence is gone, her spirit remains alive in every prayer whispered, every recipe passed down, every story told, and every tear shed in her memory. Janie’s love will continue to guide her family, her faith will continue to inspire, and her example will continue to shine like a beacon of light.

The Musquiz Family humbly invites all relatives, friends, and members of the community to gather with them in prayer, remembrance, and love as they celebrate the beautiful and holy life of Janie Marroquin Musquiz, as a visitation will be held on Thursday, February 5, 2026, from 5:00 PM until 9:00 PM, with a Holy Rosary to be recited at 7:00 PM that evening at Ramon Funeral Home, 800 Lincoln Ave, Robstown, Texas.

May the angels lead her into Paradise, may the saints welcome her, may the Lord grant her eternal rest, and may perpetual light shine upon her forever.

Elizabeth Buentello Beltran
January 18, 1971 - January 23, 2026

It is with hearts shattered by unspeakable grief and souls weighed down with sorrow as the Beltran and Buentello Families share the passing of Elizabeth Buentello Beltran, who at the blessed age of 55, was called home by Our Heavenly Father in Heaven on January 23, 2026. Elizabeth’s passing has left an immeasurable emptiness in the hearts of all who loved her, a silence where her laughter once lived, and a sorrow that words can never fully heal.

Elizabeth was born on January 18, 1971, in the humble and loving town of Robstown, Texas, as the cherished daughter of the late Ruben Javier Buentello Sr. and the late Juanita Perez Buentello. From her earliest days, Elizabeth carried a gentle spirit and a tender heart, one that would grow into a life of selfless love, unwavering devotion, and quiet strength. Elizabeth was a faithful Catholic and parishioner of St. Anthony’s Catholic Church in Robstown, where she lived her life grounded in faith, prayer, and love for God. She believed deeply in the power of prayer, in the comfort of the Rosary, and in the promise that one day Elizabeth would be reunited with those she loved in Heaven. Elizabeth’s faith carried her through life’s storms and gave her a grace that touched everyone around her. For over 12 years, Elizabeth served as a Loan Officer Secretary with Charter Bank in Corpus Christi, where she was known for her dedication, kindness, and professionalism. When she was not working, Elizabeth found happiness in the simple pleasures of life, like shopping on Amazon, preparing warm, home-cooked meals that brought everyone together around the table, getting her hair and nails done, and dreaming of or taking trips to Las Vegas. However, all of these joys could not be compared to the joys she found surrounded by her family. She never missed an opportunity to cheer at her children’s games, to sit beside her husband in quiet companionship, or to create memories that her family would carry for the rest of their lives. Elizabeth was the heartbeat of her home, the glue that held everyone together, and the gentle voice that brought comfort and love into every room she entered. Elizabeth was a woman of deep compassion and kindness, as a caring daughter, devoted wife, nurturing mother, cherished sister, doting grandmother, and a faithful friend. Elizabeth’s presence brought warmth, her words brought comfort, and her love brought peace. She had a way of making everyone feel seen, valued, and loved. Elizabeth’s impact was quiet yet powerful, and her love will echo through generations to come.

She now goes home to Our Heavenly Father in Heaven, where she has been reunited once again with her beloved parents, Ruben Javier Buentello Sr. and Juanita Perez Buentello, her brother, Ruben Buentello Jr.; and her nephew, Logan Reignz Beltran, who preceded her in death. What a glorious and tearful reunion it must have been, as their arms were wide open, hearts overflowing, and souls rejoicing as they welcomed Elizabeth into eternal peace. One can only imagine the embrace, the tears of joy, and the love that filled the gates of Heaven as Elizabeth was welcomed home.

Elizabeth leaves to cherish her beautiful and everlasting memories that will continue to live on in the hearts of her loving husband of 33 years, Juan Beltran Jr.; her beloved children, Miranda (Celeste) Beltran, John Aaron (Melissa) Beltran, Julian Alexander (Malorie) Beltran, and Jayden Matthew Beltran; her siblings, Norma (The Late Carlos) Cedillo, Sandra (Roberto) Garza, Rodolfo Buentello, and Joey (Jennifer) Avalos; her precious granddaughter, Gabriella Andrea Beltran, and one grandchild on the way, who will grow up hearing stories of the grandmother who loved so deeply. Elizabeth is also loved and adored by numerous nieces, nephews, extended relatives, and countless friends whose lives she touched with her kindness and grace.

Though Elizabeth has left this earthly world, her love remains. It will live in the laughter of her children, in the embrace of her husband, in the eyes of her grandchildren, and in the hearts of all who were blessed to know her. Elizabeth’s memory will forever be a guiding light, a gentle whisper of love, and a reminder that true love never dies, it only changes form.

The Beltran Family extends a heartfelt invitation to all of her loved ones and dear friends to join them as they gather to remember, to pray, and to celebrate the beautiful life of Elizabeth Buentello Beltran, as a visitation will be held on Friday, February 6, 2026, from 5:00 PM until 9:00 PM, with a Holy Rosary to be recited at 7:00 PM, at Ramon Funeral Home, 800 Lincoln Ave, Robstown, Texas. A Funeral Mass will be celebrated at 10:00 AM on Saturday, February 7, 2026, at St. Anthony’s Catholic Church, 204 Dunne Ave, Robstown, Texas, with interment to follow at Memorial Park Cemetery in Robstown, Texas.

May Elizabeth’s soul rest in eternal peace, embraced by the love of God, surrounded by the saints, and reunited with those she loved so dearly. Though we weep today, we hold onto the promise that we will see her again, where there is no pain, no sorrow, only everlasting love and peace in the presence of our Lord. Until we meet again, Elizabeth, may the angels lead you into Paradise, and may your memory forever live in our hearts.

Rosalinda Almaguer Ramon
August 30, 1958 - January 20, 2026

It is with humble hearts filled with sorrow as the Ramon and Almaguer Families share the passing of their beloved matriarch, Rosalinda Almaguer Ramon, who at the loving age of 67, was called home by our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ in Heaven on January 20, 2026. Rosa’s departure has left a silence so deep and a pain so heavy that words feel small against the weight of love she carried and the light she brought into this world.

Linda was born on August 30, 1958, in Corpus Christi, Texas, the cherished daughter of Adolfo Salazar Almaguer and Irma Rubio. From the very beginning, Linda carried a tender heart, a quiet strength, and a soul shaped by faith and devotion. She was a lifelong resident of Robstown, Texas, where she built a home filled with warmth, laughter, prayer, and unconditional love. Linda was a devoted Christian, where she faithfully attended Templo Maranatha Church in Robstown, and found peace in worship, comfort in prayer, and strength in the Lord’s promises. Linda’s faith was not just something she spoke of, it was also something she lived every day. She prayed for her family often without ceasing, whispered blessings over her children and grandchildren, and trusted our Lord even in the quiet storms of life. Linda was a loving wife, a nurturing mother, a guiding sister, a gentle grandmother, and a proud great-grandmother. She was the kind of woman whose love wrapped around you like a warm embrace, whose words healed, whose presence brought peace. Linda found her greatest joy in being a homemaker, caring for her family, and spending precious time with her grandchildren, watching them grow, laughing at their stories, holding their hands, and whispering prayers over their lives. She also loved the simple joys of life, like playing games on her phone, sharing stories, cooking meals with love, and creating memories that will now be held like sacred treasures by those she leaves behind. Linda’s laughter was soft but infectious, her smile gentle but unforgettable, and her hugs were the kind that felt like home.

Linda now rejoices in Heaven with our Lord and Savior, as she is reunited once again with her beloved parents, Adolfo Salazar Almaguer and Irma Rubio, who preceded her in death. One can only imagine the glorious reunion as they embraced once again, tears of joy replacing tears of sorrow, laughter echoing through the gates of Heaven as they stood in the presence of Jesus. What a beautiful moment it must have been, as love restored, hearts reunited, and faith fulfilled.

Linda leaves behind a legacy of love and cherished memories that will continue to live on in the hearts of her devoted husband of 52 beautiful years, Hector Ramon; her precious children, Hector (Veronica) Ramon Jr., Norma Jean Ramon, Roger (Judy) Ramon, and Noemi Ramon; her siblings, Martha (Geronimo) Luna, Joe Almaguer, Julian Almaguer, Carol Fitzwater, and Maria Carmen Almaguer; along with her thirteen cherished grandchildren five beloved great-grandchildren, and countless nieces, nephews, extended family members, and dear friends whose lives were touched by her kindness, humility, and grace.

Though our hearts ache, we find comfort in knowing that Linda is no longer in pain, no longer burdened by earthly struggles, but walking streets of gold, resting in eternal peace, and hearing the words she lived her life for: “Well done, my good and faithful servant.”

The Ramon Family extends a sincere and heartfelt invitation to all loved ones and friends to gather in remembrance, prayer, and celebration of Linda’s beautiful life, as a visitation will be held on Sunday, February 1, 2026, from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM, with a Prayer Service at 7:00 PM, at Ramon Funeral Home, 800 Lincoln Ave., Robstown, Texas. A Funeral Service will be held at 10:00 AM on Monday, February 2, 2026, at Ramon Funeral Home, 800 Lincoln Ave., Robstown, Texas.

As we say goodbye, we do so with broken hearts yet unshakable faith, trusting in the promise that we will see Linda again. Until that glorious day, we hold her in our hearts, in our prayers, and in every memory that still brings tears and smiles at the same time.

Marcos Ybarra
October 15, 1979 - January 17, 2026

It is with shattered hearts, and an overwhelming weight of sorrow as the Ybarra Family shares the untimely passing of Marcos Ybarra, who at the loving age of 46, was called home to be with Our Heavenly Father in Heaven on January 17, 2026. Our hearts are broken into pieces that cannot be fully expressed, as our world feels forever changed by his sudden absence.

Marcos was born on October 15, 1979, in Corpus Christi, Texas, the cherished and beloved son of Jose B. Ybarra and Angelica Rodriguez Ybarra. From the very beginning, Marcos carried within him a gentle soul, a quiet strength, and a heart that was deeply rooted in faith, family, and service. He was a devoted Catholic and a faithful parishioner of St. Thomas Catholic Church in Robstown. Marcos’s love for God was not just spoken, it was also lived in his daily actions, in the kindness he showed to others, and in the humility with which he walked through life. Marcos was also a former bass player for the 6:00 PM Praise and Worship Choir at St. Anthony’s Catholic Church in Robstown, where his music lifted hearts and voices in prayer. Through each note Marcos played, he offered a piece of his soul to God, using his talents to glorify the Lord and inspire others to worship; he was also a member of the Knights of Columbus and served faithfully on the Parish Council, always ready to give his time, his wisdom, and his heart to his parish community. Marcos’s faith was quiet but rooted in Scripture, nourished by prayer, and strengthened by his desire to grow closer to Christ. Marcos was a respected professional who practiced as a licensed Professional Engineer from 2007 until his passing. Most recently, he was a dedicated Civil Engineer with Hanson Professional Services for almost 5 years, where he was known for his integrity, intelligence, and unwavering work ethic. He approached his profession with precision, humility, and a genuine desire to serve others through his work. Marcos was respected by his colleagues and admired for his calm demeanor, thoughtful insight, and sincere kindness. Yet beyond his profession and service, Marcos was a man of simple joys and deep love; where he found happiness in playing pickleball, reading Sacred Scripture, listening to spiritual podcasts, and enjoying board games that brought laughter and togetherness into his home. However, nothing in this world meant more to Marcos than his family, who were his heart, his anchor, and his greatest blessing. He was a loving and caring son, husband, father, brother, and friend whose presence brought peace, laughter, and comfort to those around him. Marcos had a way of making people feel seen, heard, and valued through his words that were gentle, his warm laughter, and his unconditional love. Marcos often carried a quiet strength that comforted others, and his faith-filled heart guided his every step. He was the kind of man who prayed silently for others, who offered help without being asked, and who lived each day with a servant’s heart.

He goes home to Our Heavenly Father in Heaven to be reunited once again with his beloved wife, Roxana Barrera Ybarra; his grandfather, Tomas Ybarra; and his precious grandparents, Amado Rodriguez and Lilia Rodriguez. What a glorious and sacred reunion it must have been, where Roxana walked with him hand in hand into the gates of Heaven rejoicing as another faithful servant entered the eternal embrace of Our Heavenly Father. Though our hearts ache here on earth, we find comfort in knowing that Marcos is now held in perfect peace, free from all pain, resting in the arms of the Lord he loved so deeply.

Marcos leaves behind a legacy of love, faith, and kindness that will forever continue to live on in the hearts of his heartbroken children, Karina Ybarra, Vicente Ybarra, Joaquin Ybarra, and Ximena Ybarra; his treasured sister, Anissa Ybarra, and his loving parents, Joe “Bardo” Ybarra and Angelica “Angie” Ybarra. He is also loved and adored by his grandmother, Tomasa Duran Ybarra, numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, extended family members, and countless friends whose lives were touched and changed by his gentle spirit.

Though Marcos is no longer with us, he will live on in every prayer whispered, every memory cherished, every story shared, and every tear shed in love. Marcos’s absence leaves a silence that feels unbearable, but his presence will forever echo in the hearts of those who knew and loved him.

The Ybarra Family extends a heartfelt and sincere invitation to all family and friends to join them in honoring and celebrating the life of Marcos Ybarra, as a visitation will be held on Friday, January 30, 2026, from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM, with a Holy Rosary to be recited at 7:00 PM at Ramon Funeral Home, 800 Lincoln Ave, Robstown, Texas. A Funeral Mass will be celebrated at 10:00 AM on Saturday, January 31, 2026, at St. Anthony’s Catholic Church, 204 Dunne St, Robstown, Texas. Interment will follow at Memorial Park Cemetery, where Marcos will be laid to rest, reunited with those who await him in Heaven.

May the Lord wrap His loving arms around the Ybarra Family and all who mourn, granting them peace beyond understanding. May Marcos rest in eternal peace, surrounded by divine light, embraced by his beloved wife and grandparents, and welcomed into the everlasting joy of Heaven. Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him.

In Loving Memory
Roxana Barrera Ybarra
July 31, 1975 - January 17, 2026

It is with broken hearts, and unspeakable sorrow as the Ybarra and Barrera Families share the passing of their beloved Roxana Barrera Ybarra, who at the loving age of 50, was called home into the merciful embrace of Our Heavenly Father in Heaven on January 17, 2026. Roxana’s departure has left a silence so heavy, a pain so deep, and a void so vast that words feel painfully small in the presence of such unspeakable grief.

Roxana was born on July 31, 1975, in Corpus Christi, Texas, the cherished daughter of Roberto Barrera and Maria Ester Lopez Barrera. From the moment she entered this world, Roxana carried a gentle spirit, a quiet strength, and a heart that seemed to hold an endless capacity for love. Roxana grew into a woman whose kindness was felt in every room she entered, whose laughter brought comfort, and whose presence felt like home to so many. She was a devoted Catholic and faithful parishioner of St. Thomas Catholic Church in Robstown, where Roxana lived her faith not just in prayer, but in action, service, and compassion. Roxana was a proud and active member of the Catholic Daughters of America, a woman who believed deeply in serving God by serving others. She also gave of herself freely of her time, her heart, her wisdom, without ever asking for anything in return. Roxana dedicated her life to shaping young minds and nurturing young hearts for 23 years, as a Librarian and former Math Teacher at Seale Junior High School with the Robstown Independent School District. To her students, Roxana was more than just an educator, she was a guiding light, a patient mentor, and a believer in every child’s potential. She taught not only lessons from books and numbers, but lessons of perseverance, dignity, curiosity, and faith in oneself. Many will carry her words, her encouragement, and her belief in them for the rest of their lives. When she was not working, Roxana’s heart found joy in books, in theatre, in the magic of musicals, and in the beauty of shared stories. She loved reading and had a special gift for inspiring others to fall in love with learning. Roxana also volunteered on church retreats, offered a helping hand wherever it was needed, and found delight in social gatherings where her warmth, her smile, and her gentle humor could brighten even the heaviest day. However, Roxana’s greatest love was her family, who were her heartbeat, her purpose, and her greatest treasure. Every moment spent with her children, her siblings, her nieces and nephews, and her extended family was a moment Roxana cherished deeply. She was a loving and devoted daughter, a faithful and tender wife, a nurturing and protective mother, a loyal sister, a joyful aunt, and a treasured friend. Roxana’s love was steady, unconditional, and pure, the kind of love that stays long after words fall silent.

Now, in the midst of this unbearable grief, we find fragile comfort in our faith. We imagine Roxana being welcomed into Heaven, her heart reunited with the ones she loved so dearly. We picture her walking hand in hand with her devoted husband, Marcos Ybarra, reunited once again in eternal peace, embraced by her beloved parents, Roberto and Maria Ester Barrera. What a glorious reunion it must have been, as her soul finally at rest, surrounded by the love she gave so freely in this life.

Roxana leaves behind to cherish her everlasting memories that will continue to live on in the hearts of her heartbroken children, Karina Ybarra, Vicente Ybarra, Joaquin Ybarra, and Ximena Ybarra; her cherished siblings, Paula (Jerry) L. Martinez, San Juana “Janie” Barrera (Thomas) Gonzalez, and Bobby (Krista) Barrera Jr.; her treasured aunt, Diana (Conrado) Garcia; along with numerous nieces, nephews, extended family members, and dear friends who will carry her memory in their hearts forever. Roxana’s absence will be felt in classrooms, in church pews, in quiet reading corners, in family gatherings, and in every place her gentle spirit once touched. The world feels dimmer without her, and the hearts that loved her feel heavier than they ever thought possible.

The Ybarra Family extends a sincere and heartfelt invitation to all of her loved ones and dear friends to join them in honoring and celebrating the beautiful, faith-filled, and love-soaked life of Roxana Barrera Ybarra, as a visitation will be held on Friday, January 30, 2026, from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM, with a Holy Rosary recited at 7:00 PM at Ramon Funeral Home, 800 Lincoln Ave, Robstown, Texas. A Funeral Mass will be celebrated at 10:00 AM on Saturday, January 31, 2026, at St. Anthony’s Catholic Church, 204 Dunne St, Robstown, Texas. Interment will follow at Memorial Park Cemetery in Robstown, Texas.

As we say goodbye, we cling to our faith, whispering prayers through tears, trusting that Roxana is now wrapped in eternal light, where sorrow is no more, where love never ends, and where we will one day meet again. Until that day, we will carry her love, her lessons, her laughter, and her memory in every breath we take.

In Loving Memory
Roberto Barrera Sr.
December 29, 1947 - January 17, 2026

It is with devastating grief, and shattered hearts, as the Barrera Family shares the unexpected passing of their beloved patriarch, Roberto Barrera Sr., who at the graceful age of 78, was called home to be with Our Heavenly Father in Heaven on January 17, 2026. Roberto’s passing has left a silence in the hearts of his loved ones that words can never fully describe, and a pain that only faith and time can begin to heal. Roberto was a man of quiet strength, unwavering devotion, and a heart that loved deeply and faithfully.

Roberto was born on December 29, 1947, in Corpus Christi, Texas, as he was the cherished son of Juan Barrera and Clementina Ramirez Barrera. From a young age, Roberto carried with him a strong sense of duty, humility, and faith. He was a devoted Catholic and faithful parishioner of St. Anthony’s Catholic Church in Robstown, where he found comfort, purpose, and peace in prayer and in the presence of God. Roberto was a proud United States Army Veteran of the Vietnam Era, where he served his country with honor and courage beyond measure. He was a two-time Purple Heart recipient, and was awarded two Bronze Stars and a Silver Star, decorations that spoke not only of his bravery, but of his willingness to sacrifice for others. After his military service, Roberto continued his dedication to service as an Aircraft Mechanic with the Corpus Christi Army Depot, where he worked faithfully for many years. He was also a member of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, where he shared camaraderie, stories, and brotherhood with fellow veterans who deeply respected and admired him. Yet, beyond his accomplishments and honors, Roberto’s greatest pride was always his family. He was a man of gentle laughter, thoughtful wisdom, and quiet tenderness, as he loved the simple joys of life like collecting postage stamps and coins, reading for hours, watching classic Western movies, and traveling whenever he could. However, above all, nothing brought him more happiness than spending time with his family who were the light of his life, the reason for his smiles, and the center of his world. Roberto was a loving and devoted son, husband, father, brother, grandfather, great-grandfather, and friend. He carried his family in his heart and in his prayers every day. Roberto’s love was steady, his guidance gentle, and his presence comforting; as he was the kind of man whose quiet presence brought peace, whose words carried wisdom, and whose hugs carried warmth that will now be forever missed.

He has now gone home to be with Our Heavenly Father in Heaven, to be reunited in eternal peace once again with his beloved parents, Juan Barrera and Clementina Ramirez Barrera; his treasured wife, Esther L. Barrera; his cherished daughter, Roxana Barrera Ybarra; his beloved son-in-law, Marcos Ybarra; his dear brother, Jose Guadalupe Barrera; his sister, Juanita Hernandez; and his precious grandson, Juan Manuel Barrera. We take comfort in knowing that they welcomed Roberto into Heaven with open arms, where there is no more pain, no more sorrow, only everlasting peace in the presence of God.

Roberto leaves behind to mourn his absence and carry on his everlasting legacy that will continue to live on in the hearts of his heartbroken children, Pollie (Jerry) Martinez, Bobby (Krista) Barrera Jr., and San Juana “Janie” Barrera (Thomas Jr.) Gonzalez; his treasured brother, Rodolfo (Frances) Barrera; and his sister, Diana (Conrad) Garcia. He was also blessed and adored with thirteen grandchildren, seventeen great-grandchildren, and with numerous nieces, nephews, extended family members, and many friends whose lives he touched in ways that will never be forgotten.

Though his physical presence is no longer with us, Roberto’s love, his laughter, his stories, and his gentle spirit will live on in every heart he touched. Roberto’s life was a testament to his faith, his service, and his memory will forever remain a guiding light for his family.

The Barrera Family would like to extend a sincere and heartfelt invitation to all who were touched by Roberto’s life and spirit to join them in honoring and celebrating his life, as a visitation will be held on Thursday, January 29, 2026, from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM, with a Holy Rosary to be recited at 7:00 PM at Ramon Funeral Home, 800 Lincoln Ave, Robstown, Texas. A Funeral Mass will be celebrated at 1:00 PM on Friday, January 30, 2026, at St. Anthony’s Catholic Church, 204 Dunne St., Robstown, Texas. Interment with full military honors will follow at Memorial Park Cemetery, where Roberto will be laid to rest beside those he loved so dearly.

As we say goodbye, we entrust Roberto to the mercy and love of Our Lord. May the angels lead him into paradise, may the saints welcome him, and may he rest in eternal peace until we meet again. Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him.
