Roberto “Pepo” Gonzalez Jr.
March 11, 1979 – June 3, 2025
Roberto “Pepo” Gonzalez Jr., 46, passed away on June 3, 2025. Born on March 11, 1979, Pepo brought warmth, laughter, and music into the lives of everyone who knew him. He was a man who loved to sing, never turned down the chance to fire up the grill—where he proudly used his own unique seasonings—and always made time to gather with friends and family. His voice and presence lit up every room with laughter the moment he walked in.
Pepo also had a special love for animals—especially dogs and cats—who always seemed drawn to his kind and gentle spirit.
He is survived by his beloved daughter, Deilynn Gonzalez; his loving parents, Rosa M. Sandoval and Roberto Gonzalez Sr.; and his brothers, Jose Armando Gonzalez (Johanna Gonzalez) and Gerardo Ray Gonzalez (Uzzia Gonzalez). He leaves behind cherished memories that will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved him.
A visitation and ceremony to honor his life will be held on:
Sunday, June 8, 2025, from 3:00 PM to 8:00 PM
J. Leal Funeral Home
708 College Ave, South Houston, TX 77587
Pepo’s legacy is one of joy, music, compassion, and strong family bonds. He will be deeply missed but never forgotten.
