Victoriano C. Aleman

Victoriano (Victor) Aleman Sr., of Houston, Texas, passed away peacefully in the comfort of his home on the 13th of July 2017. Born in Los Fresnos, Texas to Leopoldo Aleman (deceased) and Refugia Cuellar (deceased), Victor was the second oldest of 10 children. He is preceded in death by his biological parents, Juan Silva Sr. (stepfather), Rey Aleman (son), Andres Aleman (son), and Jesus Aleman (son). As a carpenter, Victor worked a lifetime in construction and enjoyed working with his hands; whether in the garden or around the house, he continued to keep busy until the very end. He enjoyed being visited by his children and spending time with his closest friends (sons Guadalupe, Ruben, and Francisco) to discuss the very trade he taught them and which they continued to practice, while maintaining as much humor that they could possibly imagine.

Victor is survived by his spouse and soul mate, Juanita S. Aleman; children: Delia, Victoriano Jr., Dolores (Ramiro), Ricardo (Lisa), Guadalupe (Brandy), Victoria (Darryl), Ruben (Dora), Francisco (Corinne), John (Christie), and Christopher Aleman; numerous Grandchildren, Great-Grandchildren, and one Great-Great-Grandchild; and his siblings Leopoldo Aleman, Felix Silva, Alfredo Silva, Juan Silva Jr., and Guadalupe Garcia.

The family will receive friends on Sunday, July 16, 2017 from 4-8 PM at Forest Park Lawndale Funeral Home with the Recitation of the Holy Rosary at 6 PM. Funeral services will be held on Monday, July 17, 2017 at 10 AM in the Grand Chapel at Forest Park Lawndale Funeral Home. Interment will follow at Forest Park Lawndale Cemetery. Family and friends are welcomed to attend the celebration of his life and passing.
