Life story
Carlitos, as we called him, was born in Fort Worth, Texas in 2004 and grew up in Arlington, TX. He attended Saint Andrew's Catholic School in Fort Worth from kindergarten to the 8th grade. He then went on to attend high school at James Martin High School in Arlington, graduating in 2023. At the time of his passing he was enrolled in, and registering for his second semester at Tarrant County College, Trinity River Campus. He planned to obtain his Associate Degree at TCC and then enlist in the United States Navy.
His life was unfortunately cut short on November 11, 2003, a day that changed our lives forever. He was loved by all and of course always a pleasure to be around. Carlitos could light up the room with his jokes, his smile, his personality, and of course his ear piercing laugh! Carlitos loved to sing and especially loved to dance, he loved working on and cruising around in his beautiful 2011 Black Chevy Silverado.
Carlitos leaves behind his parents Carlos Sr. and Lourdes; his four siblings Andres, Vianca, Kathi, and Brisa; his nephews Julian, Kam, Jacob, Ky, Jaiden, and Kalvyn; grandparents Frank, Belem, Juan Manuel, and Gloria; and countless tios, tias, cousins, and friends. He was definitely one of God's children and will be greatly missed. Papito we love you so much and can't wait to be reunited with you at the gates of heaven, someday.
