Joshua Valadez
June 30, 1959 – September 16, 2025
Joshua Valadez, age 66, of San Antonio, Texas, passed away peacefully on September 16, 2025. He was born on June 30, 1959, in San Antonio to the late Joshua B. Valadez and Andrea Mendoza.
Joshua was a hardworking and dedicated employee at Walmart, where he proudly worked in maintenance for 15 years. His strong work ethic and positive attitude earned him several Employee of the Month awards, a reflection of the care and pride he brought to his job every day.
A devout Catholic, Joshua found joy in the simple pleasures of life. He especially loved dancing and could often be found enjoying music and good company on the dance floor. His warm spirit and easy smile brought joy to all who knew him.
Joshua is survived by his loving siblings: David Valadez, Cynthia Valadez Guyton, Michael A. Valadez, and Belinda Valadez Behrens. He was preceded in death by his parents, Joshua B. Valadez and Andrea Mendoza.
Cremation is under the direction of Hillcrest Memorial Funeral Home.
Joshua will be remembered for his kindness, his devotion to family, and his unwavering faith. He will be deeply missed.
