Jose “Joe” Escobedo Del Prado, Jr.

Our beloved friend, husband, father, uncle and grandfather Jose “Joe” Escobedo Del Prado, Jr. passed away on October 10, 2021. We saw the signs that day, a cardinal in a tree, a wolf on a mountain – the angels came down to take him home. He was surrounded by his five grateful children and devoted wife, who lovingly cared for him as he battled Parkinson’s in his final years. He was born on July 23, 1935, in Runge, Texas to Leonor and Jose Del Prado. He was preceded in death by his three sisters, Manuela Madrigal, Herminia Tamez, Juanita Salinas and grandchild, Alexandra Del Prado.
