Obituary

Salvador Pantoja Vargas falleció el 20 de noviembre de 2024 en Waco, Texas, a la edad de 92 años. Le precedió en la muerte su esposa, Severina Cabrera Pantoja.

Salvador nació el 30 de septiembre de 1932 en Aguililla, Michoacán, México. Allí vivió con sus padres, Pablo Pantoja y Lusia Vargas, antes de mudarse a Guerrero, donde conoció y se casó con su esposa Severina. Vivieron en Guerrero por algunos años antes de finalmente migrar y pasar la mayor parte de sus vidas en Veracruz. En sus últimos años, fueron cuidados por su hija Guadalupe antes de quedarse con sus otros hijos en McGregor, Texas, donde vivieron hasta el momento de su fallecimiento.

Salvador era un hombre de pocas palabras, pero con un amor profundo por su familia. Ganadero de profesión, trabajó arduamente para proveer a los suyos. Su dedicacion por el trabajo era tan fuerte que se desesperaba al estar lejos de su rancho por largos periodos. Cuando encontraba tiempo para sí mismo, disfrutaba tocar la guitarra y era un ávido jugador de dominó.

Le sobreviven sus hijos Ligoria, Margarita, Daniel, Salvador Jr., Delia, Ema, Reveriano, Griselda, Severiano, Elidia y Guadalupe; 39 nietos y 66 bisnietos.

Salvador Pantoja Vargas passed away on November 20, 2024, in Waco, Texas, at the age of 92. He was preceded in death by his wife, Severina Cabrera Pantoja.

Salvador was born on September 30, 1932, in Aguililla, Michoacán, Mexico. There, he lived with his parents, Pablo Pantoja and Lusia Vargas, before moving to Guerrero, where he met and married his wife, Severina. They lived in Guerrero for several years before eventually migrating to and spending most of their lives in Veracruz. In his later years, he was cared for by his daughter Guadalupe before staying with his other children in McGregor, Texas, where he lived until his passing.

Salvador was a man of few words but had a deep love for his family. A rancher by trade, he worked tirelessly to provide for his loved ones. His dedication to work was so strong that he became restless when away from his ranch for long periods. In his spare time, he enjoyed playing the guitar and was an avid domino player.

He is survived by his children Ligoria, Margarita, Daniel, Salvador Jr., Delia, Ema, Reveriano, Griselda, Severiano, Elidia, and Guadalupe; 39 grandchildren; and 66 great-grandchildren
