Anthony Hernandez, un alma joven y vibrante nacido el 27 de agosto de 2005 en Dallas, Texas, falleció el 1 de enero de 2025 en Forney, Texas. Su breve pero impactante vida estuvo marcada por su espíritu vigoroso y sentido del humor. Anthony era conocido por su capacidad de llevar alegría y risas a quienes lo rodeaban, viviendo cada momento al máximo con familiares y amigos que apreciaba profundamente.

Anthony, recién graduado de Wills Point High School en 2023, encontró satisfacción en la naturaleza práctica de su trabajo en chapa de roca, soldadura y construcción. Abordó su carrera con la misma energía que definió su personalidad, esforzándose siempre por crear y construir, al igual que lo hizo en sus relaciones personales.

 Anthony le gustaba pescar, bailar y cocinar. Estas actividades no eran sólo pasatiempos para él; eran vías a través de las cuales conectaba con otros, compartía risas y creaba recuerdos.

Lo recuerdan su madre, Margarita Rodríguez Vargas, y su padre, Juan Manuel Hernández. Los hermanos de Anthony, Michael, Matthew y Nayelie Hernandez, junto con su cuñado, Diego Aranda, también continúan teniéndolo cerca de sus corazones. Le sobreviven numerosos primos, entre ellos Jason Rodríguez, José Rodríguez, Sabrina Rodríguez, Kathy Rodríguez, Iván Rodríguez, Aron Rodríguez, Ashley Rodríguez y Jovany Rodríguez, así como tías y tíos: Ingrid Viatoro, Emma López, José Alberto Rodríguez, Luis Rodríguez, Raquel De La Cruz, Santos Rodríguez, Ana Rodríguez y Joel Romo.

Anthony le precedieron en la muerte su padrastro, Arturo Martínez González, su abuela, Juanita Vargas, y su abuelo, Valentín Rodríguez.

El espíritu de Anthony resonará para siempre en los corazones de quienes lo amaron, y su legado de risa y amor seguirá inspirando a todos los que tuvieron la suerte de conocerlo.

Se invita a familiares y amigos a presentar sus respetos durante el servicio de visitas el 13 de enero de 2025, de 5:00 p. m. a 9:00 p. m. en Anderson Clayton Funeral Home ubicada en 301 W Nash St, Terrell, TX.
