Obituary
Harlingen, TX -
Gonzalo Prado, 79, of Harlingen, TX passed away surrounded by his family on Monday, October 9, 2017. Gonzalo was born June 21, 1938 to Guadalupe Prado and Maria Rodriguez in Montemorelos, N.L. (Mexico).
He married Isabel Aguirre on January 5, 1964 in Montemorelos, N.L. (Mexico) and they moved to the United States shortly after. A family soon followed with sons Gonzalo (Jr.), Armando, Ricardo and daughters Blanca Estela and Elizabeth being born.
In the United States, Gonzalo eagerly learned carpentry and after some time, became self-employed working with his sons as "Prado Construction". He worked in this trade for over 40 years. He was a member of the Jehovah's Witnesses and was a volunteer of the Regional Building Committee where he helped build Kingdom Halls throughout south Texas. He truly cherished this honor of being able to work alongside many friends throughout the years.
Gonzalo is preceded in death by his parents, his brother Jose Prado (Leonor), his sister Josefina Prado Rodriguez, a son Gonzalo Prado, Jr., a daughter Blanca Estela Garcia (Eduardo) and a granddaughter Jasmine Brielle Prado.
He is survived by his loving wife of 53 years, his sons Armando and Ricardo Prado, a daughter Elizabeth Prado and a granddaughter Maxene Alexsis Prado.
A memorial talk will be given on Friday, October 13, 2017 at 7:00 p.m. at the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses located at 201 N. Loop 499, Harlingen, TX.
