Hector Gonzalez Obituary

It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that we must announce the passing of our beloved father, grandfather, brother, uncle, cousin and friend. Hector Palma Gonzalez, 58, of Loving, N.M., passed away in his daughter's home in Las Cruces, N.M., Saturday, Nov. 3, 2012.
Hector is survived by one son: Jason Shipley; two daughters: Jennie Becerra and Heather Sharp; seven grandchildren: Christen Shipley, Joshua Sharp, Anthony Becerra, Abby Shipley, Jacob Becerra, Cason Barthol and Parker Shipley; two brothers: Henry Gonzales and Amalio Gonzales Jr.; two sisters: Leonora Gonzalez and Ofelia Gonzales; and numerous nieces, nephews and cousins.
Hector was a great man with a gentle soul and humble heart. He would do anything for anyone without a second thought. He believed strongly in the Lord, Jesus Christ, and read his bible everyday. He will be missed beyond words, but will forever remain in our hearts.
Services for Hector will be held at Our Lady of Grace Catholic Church in Loving, N.M. A rosary will be held at 7 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 8, 2012, and the mass at 10 a.m. Friday, Nov. 9, 2012.
