Generoso Rivera Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Springer and Son - Aloha Funeral Home & Crematory on Jan. 2, 2026.
It is with great sadness this earth lost the soul of John Rivera shortly after Thanksgiving 2025.
He is survived by his three children, Lucia Reeser, John Rivera, and Ernie Rivera.
His grandchildren, Victor Reeser, Nickolas Reeser, Maria Reeser, Trevor Rivera, Danielle Rivera and Ernie Rivera.
His great grandchildren, Lemon, Emma, Nick, Noah, Savannah, Lily, Hunter, RaeLynn, Cordelia, and Jude.
Many knew our dad as Poppa, or Johnny, and he embraced and adopted people with a heart full of good intentions and entertaining generosity.
His passion for gardening knew no bounds, and his love of creating and building things kept his mind active and alive with ideas up to his passing.
He will be remembered and cherished for all he gave to everyone he met.
