Enrique “Henry” Gonzalez entered into eternal peace on Wednesday April 6, 2016 at his home in Laredo, Texas. He was born on July 11, 1933 to Rodolfo and Victoria Gonzalez and lived most of his life in East Chicago, Indiana and Laredo, Texas. He was an amazing and loving father, grandfather and friend. He will always live in our hearts. He was preceded in death by his wife Olivia Gonzalez and is survived by his daughters Veronica (Jose Ricardo), Maricela (Israel) Compton, Victoria Navarro and son Henry Gonzalez Jr. He is also survived by his grandchildren Ruben (Celina) Segura, Ethan Sebastian Garza, Deborah (Andrew) Moreno, Israel (Karen) Compton Jr., Rebecca Compton, Antonio (Tony) Gonzalez, Kelly Navarro, and great grandchildren Ryan Elis Segura, Jayde, and Amaya. Mr. Gonzalez served in the Army from 1950-1953, was a Korean War Veteran who was awarded three bronze stars. We would like to thank Dr. Mateo Reyes and his staff, CMV Home Health and his nurse Aida Mendiola, and Hope Dialysis Center for all their care and support. John 11:25-26, Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die and whoever lives by believing in me will never die".

Honoring his wishes, Mr. Gonzalez will be cremated. Graveside services and military honors will be held on Wednesday, April 13, 2016 at the Laredo City Cemetery.
