Denise Gonzalez Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Mission Park Funeral Chapels Cherry Ridge on Mar. 13, 2026.
Denise Clare Gonzalez was born on September 6th, 1978 in San Antonio, Texas. She passed away on March 6th, 2026. She is preceded in death by her grandpa, Rodolfo Gonzalez and is survived by her loving parents, Sylvia and John Townsend; Bertha Gonzalez (Grandmother), Dylan Townsend (Brother), Diana Wolfe(Jimmy), and Hector Gonzalez (Lori).

Denise was a graduate of Blessed Hope Academy and later attended San Antonio College, where she pursued a career as a Veterinary Technician.

Denise was a loving soul who gave with her heart. There was no stray animal that she didn't want to adopt or give assistance to. If you were in need, she would be by your side, walking hand in hand with you to accomplish whatever obstacle was thrown their way. Joe was the love of her life! Although not officially married, they called each other husband and wife and worked together to pave the way for a better future for them both. She loved her family more than anything and appreciated all the help her Grandmother and mother sent her way. Although a very private person, if you were in her circle, you know you were loved. Joe, Sylvia, John and Bertha and her entire family loved her unconditionally; they know that Grandpa Rudy is helping her in her new home. We love you, Denise. Rest in peace.
