George G. Flores entered eternal life with the Lord at “high noon” on April 4, 2019 at the age of 75. A true cowboy at heart, he was an avid hunter and fisherman, but is best known for his storytelling of the one that got away. Regarded by many as “Shorty” and “Grandpa”; his gregarious personality and unity of family captured the hearts of all. George was born in San Antonio, Texas on June 3, 1943. He honorably served in the United States Army from 1961-1964. On November 29, 1964 he married Carmen Castilleja, his “Morning Dove”. He is survived by his wife of 54 years, Carmen Flores; his daughter and son-in-law, Yvette and Thomas Massa, daughter and son-in-law, Roxanna and Carlos Ramirez, daughter Veronica Carlos and Maclovio Salas, son and daughter-in-law, George and Jana Flores, twelve grandchildren and three great grandchildren.
George left behind countless beautiful memories and made a lasting impression on everyone he met. His legacy will forever live on in our hearts and he will be deeply missed.
