Felix G. Telles

Clovis, CA - Felix G. Telles passed away unexpectedly Sat. Aug. 4, 2018 at the age of 93. He resided in Clovis, CA. He is a native of San Miguel, New Mexico, living most of his adult life in California or Nevada. He resided in Sparks, Nevada for 35 years prior to moving to Clovis, CA.

Felix was a fun-loving man who lived every moment of life to its fullest. His biggest love was his family. He never married or had children but had numerous nieces and nephews that he truly loved dearly.

He enjoyed sharing his cooking knowledge with the family. Also enjoyed telling stories about when he was young.

He enjoyed cooking, keeping a beautiful home, gardening, bowling, and playing board games. Having guests in his home for a nice dinner party was a real delight for him. Even in his later years, he kept up some of these activities until his passing. He recently joined in on the latest craze of Adult Coloring and was excellent with every detail. He shared his coloring with everyone and even would give you one with his signature on it. He was very proud of them.

He was a member of the Knights of Columbus. He attended St.Theresa of the Little Flower Catholic Church in Reno, NV. He sang in the choir until he was 87 years old. He was very dedicated to his faith and loved singing. For many years, he would sing around the piano with the accompaniment of his dear friend Ed Davies.

Our UNCLE FELIX will be dearly missed as he was a very sweet and dear soul.

He is preceded in death by his parents and his 9 siblings. What a joyous reunion that was.

He is survived by his nieces & nephews: Jaime Telles, Yolanda Giles, Nena Singh, Ramon Telles Jr., Elizabeth Sosa, Hector Uribe, Isela Covarribia, Rachel Loch, Raul Uribe, Rafael Uribe, Father John Telles, Dorothy Terrazas, Louie Telles, Frances Owens, Michael Telles, Maria Garcia, Rita Johnson, Bernadette Chavez, David Baxter, Gloria Alarcon, Freddie Telles, Henry Telles, Betty Telles, Art Telles and Fay Giddens.

A special thanks to his Great-niece Nicole Radke-Petzinger and her husband Rich for the extra care they gave to him.
