Enrique Flores Rivera, 74, of Fort Stockton, TX, passed away on Wednesday, January 26, 2022, in Odessa, TX.
Enrique was born in Mexico to Jesus Rivera and Guadalupe Flores on July 15, 1947. Enrique Rivera was the "lawyer of the family" as we would all jokingly tell him. He was our voice of the family! Enrique was a Man of God, a loving husband, father, grandfather, son, brother, uncle, and friend. His pride and joy was his daughter Elisabeth Guadalupe. She was his everything! With no hesitations, he was a man that gave to all and heled anyone that would ask for his assistance. One of the greatest memories he leaves with us is how much he loved his parents. Especially, his father. He would play cards and dominos with him just about every day. Enrique loved music and he loved to sing, especially Christian Music. We will always cherish the memories we have with Enrique, and he will be greatly missed by all of us who loved him dearly!
He is preceded in death by his wife, Juanita "Juana" Salas Rivera, his parents Jesus Rivera and Guadalupe Flores Rivera, brothers Jose Rivera, and Jessie Rivera.
Enrique is survived by his 6 children, Gregorio "Gregory" Rivera, Jesse Jimenez, Elizabeth Guadalupe Rivera, Kenia Luna, Julissa Rivera, Enriqueta Elda Rivera, and Martin Roman, 12 grandchildren, 2 great grandchildren, brothers, Juan Rivera, and Rolando Rivera, sisters, Sixta Ureste, Romelia Hernandez, Hilda Rivera, Elda Rivera, and Rosa Esqueda, and many nieces and nephews who all adored him.
Graveside Service will be held on Saturday, February 12, 2022, at 10:00 a.m., at East Hill Cemetery. Arrangements have been entrusted to Eternity Funeral Home.
The family of Enrique Rivera wishes to extend our sincere thanks to all those who have helped our family during this difficult time.
