Fidel Sanchez

Fue precedido en la muerte por su papá Herminio, madre Araceli, hermanos Manuel, Epigmenio y Lindolfo y hermanas Catalina y Manuela.

Fidel fue un hombre trabajador de gran corazón. Nació en Villagrán, Tamaulipas y desde muy joven buscó emigrar a Estados Unidos, primero de bracero y luego como residente permanente. Fueron jornadas largas y agobiantes en el campo pero esto aseguró un futuro prometedor para toda la familia. Siempre será recordado por ser un hombre de familia y buen amigo y por su forma de incluir algunas frases “célebres” en su vocabulario.

Su esposa, Francisca; sus hijos Petra (Luis), Roberto, Adolfo (Cynthia), Araceli, Leticia (Zak), Dora, Fidel Jr. (Marcy), Rosalva, Juana María (Javier), Sylvia, Sonia (Sonny), Herminio (Amanda) y Francisco; sus hermanos Maria del Refugio y Andrés; nietos y bisnietos, ruegan a Dios por su alma.

He was preceded in death by his father Herminio, his mother Araceli, brothers Manuel, Epigmenio y Lindolfo, and sisters Catalina y Manuela.

Fidel was a hard worker with a big heart. He was born in Villagran, Tamaulipas, Mexico and from a young age looked to emigrate to the United States, first through the bracero program and then as a permanent resident.
