I am so sorry to have just read of “Bule” passing away last year. I was a good friend of the Mendez Family back in the 1950-60s and seeing Bule’s picture brought back many fond memories of the Mendez family’s closeness. Know that he  and you will be  in my  prayers.  Rest  in God’s peace,  Bule.                                                                  PS:   Eva and Esperanza please convey my condolences to my  dear friend Mary Lou , with whom l have not been in touch  for the past 60 years. Could you please email me  to let me know that you’ve received my condolences? God bless you!                 Anna Mae (Perez) Garza    / El Campo, Texas                                              

My condolences to the Mendez family.  I knew Raul as a loving husband and father.  When I lived in Brownsville, I always saw him with his wife Anna,  his life partner 💞.  As he sleeps in peace may Jehovah give his loved ones strength to endure his loss. May He fill the emptiness in their hearts with cherished memories and love until the day they will all be together again. 💐

I’ve tried all day long thinking of what I should say. 
Well I finally realized there is actually not enough words to describe how I feel about losing my last male sibling. 
You hermano, were the most living, caring, generous individual.  Please RIP - God knows how sad, confused and sick you have been. It was time for you to rest eternally.
Now that u have gone to your forever home, please watch over Fina, Maria Luisa and Espy. 
This is NOT goodbye but rather keep our places warm. 
Don’t worry about Laura. I will watch over her until I take my last breath 
Hugs to Ama, Ben, Juanito, Valdo, Ramon, Pepe, and Julian 
Tu hermanita que te defendía siempre. 😥😥💙💙EVA MENDEZ

Condolences to you and your family at this time. May your loved ones memories live on in your heart ♥️.

Raul was like my 2nd father, I’ve known him since I was born probably. Learn so much from this man, I would always remember the fires on a cold day at the house, the nice trips on the hay trailer around the ranch ,feeding the animals, helping out at construction sites, and all the funny stories. So many memories that I will cherish ❤️. We love you Raul and the Mendez family. R.I.P. and hug Gina for us from the Perez family.

Dad, you were my first love. I will treasure all the memories we made not only as a child growing up, but through my adult life. I am so proud to call you My dad. You suffered tremendously, but do know that I did everything in my power to keep you alive. Maybe I was being selfish. I didn’t realize you were tired and ready to go “home”.  I am glad I spent every last minute with you, on your good days and on your bad. ✝️

I will miss our lunch dates, where I used to take you your favorites; KFC chicken and Barbacoa with Diet Coke and a lot of Ice on Sunday's. It will be our secret that I gave you dessert once in a while. ✝️

Please rest and give my grandma Katy and my baby sister a huge hug. Tell them life here on earth will never be the same. Let my uncles know they are also missed and thought of often. ✝️

Rest dad, and remember it’s not a goodbye, but an “Until next time”! I love you immensely and will carry you in my heart everywhere I go. ✝️

Te quiero mucho! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Your daughter 
Laurita 

Raul was a salt of the earth man who was kind and generous to many who knew him. We will miss your stories of life on the border. Rest easy in God’s loving arms.
