Daniel Cervantez Obituary

Published by Legacy on Jan. 3, 2024.
Daniel Alex Cervantez, 77, passed away at home surrounded by his family on Wednesday, December 27, 2023.
Daniel was born on June 26, 1946, to Chris and Esther Cervantez in Highland, California. He was a proud resident of the City of Rialto, California. He married Gloria Cervantez at the age of 21 on June 17, 1967. He was drafted shortly after to The United States Army where he actively served 2 years and fought in The Vietnam War. Once he returned, Daniel worked as a Truck Driver for 25 years with The Harding Trucking Company. He was a long time member of the VFW, Elks and American Legion for 37 years.
Daniel was always the life of the party with his very loving, charismatic and fearless nature. He enjoyed spending his time with his family and taking trips to their favorite time share Tamarack Beach Resort. Daniel was a die hard Dallas Cowboys Fan and always passionate about his Classic Cars. He always had the ability to make you smile with a joke or sly remark.
Daniel was predeceased by his son, Donovan Daniel Cervantez and left behind his wife, Gloria Cervantez; his daughters Deana Cervantez and Denise Cervantez; as well as eight grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren.
Services and Funeral Mass will be private at the request of the family.
