He also leaves behind many grandchildren and great-grandchildren who loved him immensely. Saul was dedicated to his job working for Ben F. Smith Construction Inc. for 20 years. He was very proud of being the first Hispanic foreman for the company. He loved music, dancing, singing and a nice cigar. He had a personality that was larger than life and enjoyed life to the fullest. He was kind-hearted and welcomed everyone into his home. His favorite pastimes were his walks in the neighborhood, spending time with Carmen and sitting in his favorite old office chair in the front yard. Our lives will never be the same without the sound of his laughter. Viewing will be held at Family Mortuary, 1201 N.
