Jesus Villarreal, Jr.

December 6, 1931-January 21, 2020

Jesus “Chuy” Villarreal, Jr., 88, entered into eternal rest on Tuesday, January 21, 2020, at a local hospital after a brief illness.

He was born to Francisca Jasso and Jesus Villarreal Sr. on December 6, 1931, in New Gulf, Texas.  He attended primary schools in New Gulf, later St. Augustine High School in Laredo in 1946 when the family moved to Laredo.  He left school to join the Army during the Korean Conflict.  Upon his discharge he returned to Laredo to graduate under the GED classes.  He later joined The Laredo National Bank as a security guard for twenty years until he retired.  He was very proud of his job where he met a lot of people. After he retired, he and his wife and son, did quite a bit of traveling.

He was preceded in death by his parents, his wife Maria Amelia Juarez, one brother Alonzo (Raquel) Villarreal, sisters Elisa Villarreal (Enrique) Buentello, and Maria Olga Villarreal (Salvador) Lopez.

Jesus is survived by his only son Jesus Gerardo “Hito” Villarreal, sister Narcedalia Villarreal (Jose Julio +) Cuellar, brother, Ret. Col. Guadalupe (Lorraine) +) Villarreal from Williamsburg, Virginia; and other family members and friends who will miss him dearly.
