IN MEMORY OF JOSE

Jose and his wife Guadalupe.
José Flores Sánchez passed away February 12, 2017 in Nuevo Progreso, Mexico.  He would have been 62 years old on February 16th.  José Flores Sánchez was the husband of Guadalupe (Lupita) Treviño.  They had been married 45 years.

José and Lupita had 7 children, 6 of which are still living, and they had many grandchildren.  José will be greatly missed by family, friends, neighbors and members of Bethesda Church of God in Nuevo Progreso.

José loved God's word.  He had printed many scriptures by the front door of his house so he could read them when he sat on his patio.  He had a custom of insisting the neighbor children quote at least one scripture before they were allowed to enter his home.  And many times we watched the children happily repeat scriptures, short or long, before dashing through the door.

Also, José wrote many songs of worship to the Lord.  During the Memorial Service for José, Pastor Gerardo plans to sing some of those very special songs.  The service will be held February 14th at 4:00 pm in Rio Bravo, Mexico.
