He served in the Texas Army National Guard and soon started a family.
He was a truck driver for his father's company, Arevalo Produce in Austin, Texas. He then was employed by ABC Trucking company as a lead automotive mechanic. In 1977 he decided to pursue his own business known as Arevalo Truck and Automotive. He also operated a billiard hall known as "Your Place". His children were an important role and were involved in operating "Your Place" and learned the skill of playing pool.
He continued to work up to the last week before his passing. His love for automotive and serving others will always be cherished.
His passion was Texas Gulf Coast Fishing. He ventured out to test the waters in Port Aransas and shortly discovered Port O' Connor, a wonderful oasis on the Texas Gulf Coast. He considered this to be the best kept secret on the Gulf Coast. He introduced his family and many others to experience the sport of fishing. Which included countless fishing stores and adventures. To say the least "the one that got away".
His legacy of fishing will be carried on.
We want to Thank everyone for their love and support during this difficult time. On the day of the burial, the family would kindly request to wear fishing attire or anything that would represent the Texas Gulf Coast(this is optional).
Our family would like to extend our gratitude for the ultimate care that was provided by Dr. Ashvin Baru and his staff at WellBound/Satellite dialysis center.
