Cayetano Serafin Trevino, affectionately known as "Cat," was a devoted husband, father, brother, and friend whose presence illuminated the lives of those fortunate enough to know him. Born on October 1, 1957, in Mathis, Texas, Cayetano spent his life rooted in his community, where he became known for his unwavering support, kindness, and sense of humor.

Cayetano was always ready to lend a hand, share a laugh, or offer support, embodying the true spirit of community and companionship. His dedication as a hardworking provider revealed his deep commitment to his loved ones, and he approached every aspect of life with purpose and heart.

Cayetano found joy in the simple pleasures that life offered. He cherished moments spent with family and friends, often BBQing on weekends, where laughter and love thrived.
