Jesus “Chuy” Gonzalez of Crane, TX was a caring husband, father and grandfather. He passed away on January 4, 2022, at the age of 85. Born in Langtry, TX and raised in Rankin, TX, he later married Guadalupe Lopez and made their home in Crane.

He proudly served his country in the United States Army from 1959-1962 as a medic. He worked in the oilfield much of his life and retired as a chemical truck driver in 1999.
