Jesus Gonzales, age 76, went to be with the Lord on January 21, 2021. He was born in Harlingen, Texas on February 15, 1944, to Guadalupe and Emilia Salazar Gonzales. To some he was known as Brother Jesse or Tio Chuy, but to his family as a loving and devoted husband, father, and grandfather, he was simply known as Hun and Grandpa. Brother Jesse is survived by his wife Juanita Gonzales (married for 56 years), his son Jesse Gonzales Jr., his son Naphtali Gonzales (wife Nidia), and his only daughter Emily Hernandez (husband Michael). Brother Jesse is also survived by his pride and joy- his (7) grandchildren: Natalie, Mathew, Nathan, Caitlyn, Olivia, Maddox and Sophia. Grandpa is and will forever be loved and missed by his family and all who knew him. Brother Jesse was a God-fearing man who served the Lord faithfully his entire life. Early in his walk with Christ, Brother Jesse served under the ministry of his brother, Eliseo Gonzales Sr. After the passing of Eliseo Sr., Brother Jesse served under the ministry of his nephew, Eliseo Gonzales Jr. He later became an Elder at his current church Harlingen Trinity Worship Center. Brother Jesse was a pillar in the Christian community and served in the ministry alongside his wife for over 50 years.
