Leo Rivera was born on August 3, 1956 in Baguio City, Philippines. He graduated with his Bachelor of Science in Nautical Engineering from the Philippine Merchant Marine Academy. He sailed as a Merchant Marine for 15 years, and traveled all over the world. He later migrated to the United States, and worked as a building mechanic for Spring ISD ensuring quality and safety to his community for over 20 years. Leo was a zealous and faithful church officer. His duties included District Scan Vice President, Local Finance Auditor, and Chapel Maintenance.
Leo was a loving big brother, a sweet husband, and a goofy father. He enjoyed spending time with family, video calling his siblings, and playing with his dog.
Leo had a happy spirit and generous soul. He had a great sense of humor, and his jokes were undeniably Dad. His warmth and smile will be greatly missed.
A visitation for Leo will be held Friday, March 17, 2023 from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM at Earthman Resthaven, 13102 North Fwy, Houston, TX 77060.
