Silverio was adored by his children and always looked forward to seeing his family. He loved life, and his infectious smile served as a beacon of love for those fortunate enough to have known him.

He is preceded in death by his parents, Juan Hernandez Mendoza and Beatriz Aguinaga; his beloved brother, Juan Aguinaga Mendoza; his loving wife Constansia Lopez, and his beloved son, Juan L Mendoza.

He is survived by his children, Silverio Mendoza, Arturo Mendoza, Jorge Mendoza, Juan H Mendoza (Maria), Alfredo Mendoza (Karen), Irene Medders, Carlos Mendoza, and Samuel Mendoza. He also leaves behind wonderful grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
