Enrique Garzoria

Birdsong Cremations

Born and raised in Brownsville, Texas Enrique Garzoria Jr. was the eldest son of Enrique and Esperanza Garzoria.  Known as Kike to his friends and family; he has joined Consuelo his wife of fifty-two years, his parents, and bother Rodolfo in heaven. Passing away on Monday the 16th he was days away from turning 74 years old.  One of nine brothers and sisters he precedes Olga Troncoso, Ruben Garzoria, Gracie Carlos, Pedro Jose Garzoria, Yolanda Cadriel, Rene Garzoria, and Rolando Garzoria. Enrique learned responsibility from an early age.  As a young boy he would ride his bike to pay the family bills.  As a reward his mom would give him a nickel to buy a Coke. In high school he played football as the starting quarterback.  After graduation, he decided to try his hand in the early years of computer programming and traveled to Kansas City to start his education.  It was in high school where he first met Connie. Kike and Connie’s adventures together began from the start.  On their first date they saw The Night of the Living Dead at a drive in.  With a midnight curfew looming they took a short cut through a cemetery where his car broke down.  Knowing they had to make it home or face getting married; they ran into the night and began their life together. After they got married, they eventually moved to Houston where they raised a family.  Enrique went on to become a programmer where he worked with main frames for large corporations.  Riding the boom-and-bust cycle of the oil and gas industry he eventually found his way to Saudi Arabia to work with Aramco.  Enrique ended up staying here until his retirement but wherever he went he always came home to see his parents in Brownsville. Enrique was an adventurous person and enjoyed spending that time with Connie.  Together they explored the world and made many lasting memories. They loved experiencing new cultures and making new friends everywhere they went.   He was also an avid golfer and played tournaments in South Africa, Vietnam, and Thailand.  In retirement he and Connie enjoyed camping throughout Texas and the Rockies with their loyal poodle Sebastian. He was a family man who truly cared for his wife and children.  Together they raised two children and taught through example how to be responsible and loving adults.  Eventually he grew into the role of grandfather and enjoyed watching his grandkids play football and taking them on camping trips.  He enjoyed zombie and WWII movies and being around people. Never one to back down from a challenge, Enrique led a long and fruitful life where he lived on his own terms. Enrique is survived by his son Henry and his wife Nancy, his son Gabe and his wife Christy.  Enrique was always full of joy when spending time with his grandchildren Anthony, Tristian, Bella, Kikin, Sophia, and was happy to meet his first great grandchild.
