Salvador Gonzalez and Maria Isabel Rivera. In his early teenage years, Felipe arrived in
the United States and would later establish his home and business in the town of
Mendota, California. Felipe was a hardworking, energetic, believer in the impossible.
His innovative thought process and perseverance made Felipe into a community
serving entrepreneur for 47 years. Felipe was a renaissance man; he knew a little bit of
everything and was eager to learn a little bit of everything. He lived every day with
diligence and purpose. Besides being a goal-oriented individual he was also a mentor
to many. When you visited his shop, he was assured to provide comfort, safety, and at
times a plate of food. He is the true epitome of “Anything and everything is possible
with God and hard work”.
On October 20, 2021, surrounded by his loving children and wife, Felipe was called
upon by the Lord. He is survived by his wife Hermelinda and his children Yolanda,
Dora, Veronica, Abraham, Crystal, Bryan and is preceded in death by his son Felipe
Gonzalez Jr. Felipe was also blessed with 11 grandchildren and 7 great-grandchildren.
