He is preceded in death by his brothers Raymond and David Zuniga.
He lived an incredible life with his wife and best friend Mary (Gonzalez) Zuniga for 43 years, whom be absolutely adored. He worked his entire life as a salesman for various companies such as Big Tin Barn, Sears, McCoy's, and 84 Lumber where he developed many friendships and left his mark in the construction world. His gift of gab made him truly successful in this field and also made him so much fun to be around. He loved to fish , enjoyed telling stories, loved a good family barbecue, but lived for his grandbabies. He would never let a Sunday go by without making his rounds to visit them all. He was very proud of his three daughters and loved his sons-in-law like his own. But most of all he treasured his wife. He would always call her "Honey" and would always hold her hand everywhere they went. He loved her and she will always love him.
Besides his wife he is survived by his three loving daughters Erica (Artemio) Ravize, Annie (Armando) Perez, and Danielle (Rick) Rangel all of Harlingen; and his grand-children Katia, Kiara, Artemio "AJ", Aidrik, Avery, Derrick, Carolina, Camila, and Baby Perez on the way. He is also survived by his stepmother Ernestina "Tina" Zuniga, three brothers Elias Zuniga, JR., Porfirio (Belinda) Zuniga, Fred (Belen) Zuniga, and sister-in-law Cindy Zuniga.
