Gabino Estrada Hernandez

It is with extreme sadness that we announce on Sunday, October 30, 2022, Gabino Hernandez Estrada 65, a loving husband, father, grandfather, and godfather passed away unexpectedly.

Gabino graduated from Merit Shop Construction Training Division of Greater Houston in 1979 as a Welder, his passion for welding lead him to design his 2008 Dodge Ram into his Rig Welding truck and worked for many years with his bad ass truck! 

Gabino leaves a huge hole in the hearts of his family, friends, and co-workers, who were always entertained by his hilarious sense of humor, his best barbeque food, and playing cards with family. He truly brought life to the party. 

He will be lovingly remembered by his wife of 28 years, Norma Jean Hernandez; his daughter Dreama Gomez; grandson Xavier Gomez; and goddaughter Jamileth Noguera. 

Gabino is predeceased by his father Jose Conuto Hernandez; and son Anthony Hernandez.
