Jesse Estrada went to be with the Lord on October 19, 2025, in San Antonio, Texas at the age of 88. He was born in Floresville, Texas on July 28, 1937, to Ysidro and Catalina Estrada.

When not working, he enjoyed spending time with his kids teaching them skills like swimming and bike riding. He enjoyed playing tennis, shooting billiards, doing his Sudoku puzzles, and watching the San Antonio Spurs. In retirement, he spent time with his wife sightseeing across the country. He also found joy and took great pride in maintaining his home and yard.

Jesse was a good man and a good supervisor. He expected people to do their jobs and all was good! It was easy to work with him dealing with employee problems. My sympathies and condolences to the family.

No matter the occasion, Uncle Jesse always met me with that big smile & a huge hug. In the early 90s my little family & I rented Grandma Estrada’s house from him. We had done a lot of work on it before moving in. He was very grateful & for years after he bragged of how easy it was to rent after we left because of the work his niece did on it. I’ll miss your cheerful voice Uncle Jesse. Until we meet again may you rest in peace.

My condolences to Jesses family. I worked with Jesse for many years, side by side on Tour I and Tour 3. Jesse was a very disciplined man who expected employees to do their job. He was a no no-nonsense General supervisor each and every day! We became good friends! May he rest in peace!
