Elias Salazar entered into the loving arms of Our Lord on May 29, 2024 at the age of 73. Elias was born on June 14, 1950 to Jesus and Elena Salazar in San Antonio, Texas. He was the one of five Salazar children.
Elias cherished his role as a dedicated family man. He found immense joy in the simple pleasures of life, such as the laughter and camaraderie shared during family road trips, the refreshing swims on scorching Texas days at Garner State Park River, and the spirited games of softball and football. His heart swelled with pride as he bonded with his grandsons and son over BBQ sessions, watching his family craft traditional tamales, and teaching them the art of preparing menudo. When he wasn't creating cherished memories with his family, Elias poured his unwavering dedication into his career, achieving the esteemed position of a CNA at Audie Murphy Hospital through sheer determination and hard work.
Elias will be united in heaven with his loving parents; Jesus and Elena Salazar, his granddaughter; Regina N. Salazar, maternal grandparents; Patricio Vasquez, Refugia Maria Montez, paternal grandparents; Frutoso Salazar and Luisa Aldarete, and his siblings; Gilbert Salazar, Rachel Tovar, David Salazar, and Daniel Salazar.
