Moises Menedez

We gather today to celebrate the vibrant life of Moises Menendez, a man whose laughter and love knew no bounds. Born on February 15, 1966, in the warm and bustling city of Santa Ana, El Salvador, Moises's journey led him to San Antonio, Texas, where he spent his final moments on December 27, 2025. His legacy is one of boundless generosity, unwavering love, and the kind of humor that could light up even the darkest room.
Moises, a cherished husband to Maria, was the epitome of devotion. Together, they created a family that became his pride and joy. His children, Janette Sarai, Diana Ester, and Genesis Nicole, were the apples of his eye, and his grandchildren, Ayden J, Sophia Anahi, Reyna Mariana, Adrian Josiah, and Reymundo Lee Jr, were the stars that lit up his galaxy. Moises's role as a family man was at the very core of his existence, and his love for them was as vast as the universe.
Professionally, Moises dedicated over a decade of his life to the Children's Santa Rosa, where his hard work and commitment touched the lives of many. His colleagues knew him as a man of integrity and passion, someone who brought not just his skills but also his heart to every challenge.
A devout Christian, Moises's faith was the compass that guided him through life's storms. It was this faith that shone through in his every action, inspiring those around him to embrace love and kindness as their own guiding stars.
Moises's interests were simple yet profound. He found joy in the laughter of his family and friends, and cherished the moments spent in the tranquility of nature, whether it was teaching his grandkids the art of fishing or simply enjoying the serenity of the park. These simple pleasures were the threads that wove the beautiful tapestry of his life.
Described as funny, loving, and generous, Moises's spirit was a beacon of light. His humor was the kind that could turn a frown upside down, and his generosity knew no limits. He gave not just material possessions, but pieces of his heart to everyone he met.
In the words of Ralph Waldo Emerson, "To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children... to leave the world a bit better... to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded." Moises Menendez lived by this creed, and indeed, he succeeded.
Today, as we reflect on the life of Moises, let us not dwell on the loss but celebrate the gift that was his life. Let us carry forward the laughter, the love, and the generosity he bestowed upon us. Let us honor his memory by living our lives with the same joy and passion that he did every single day.
Moises Menendez's journey through this world was a testament to the beauty of a life well-lived, a life that will continue to inspire and motivate all who were blessed to know him. His legacy is not one of sorrow, but one of hope and the unyielding power of love. As we say farewell, we do so with the knowledge that his spirit will forever be a guiding light in our hearts.
