Juan A. Vega, passed away Tuesday, February 15, 2022. He was born on October 6, 1935 in San Diego, Texas. He was a devoted husband and loving father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and a friend to a great many people.
He was unyielding in his faith as a member of the Corpus Christi Cathedral. He was a shining example of strength, devotion, and loyalty; always willing to listen, and opened his home to all who visited.
His greatest passion was to work and help others, retiring from Central Freight Lines after 25 years as a delivery driver, then 10 years from HEB after that. He was always willing to lend a helping hand. He will be sorely missed by all those whose lives he touched.
He is preceded in death by his loving wife, Guadalupe G. Vega and all of his siblings.
