Amado Rodriquez Gonzales Obituary (1966 - 2023)

Amado was born in Lamb County on the upper Southern section of the Texas panhandle on February 8, 1966. His parents were Audelia Rodriquez Gonzales and Fabian Gonzales. Amado has a brother, but as a young child, Amado lost his parents. As a result, he ended up in foster care and he and his brother were separated. Amado was married at one point, but unfortunately, his marriage did not last. Amado has two sons and a daughter that are estranged. He spent some of his life in Wichita Falls, Texas. We first met Amado when he ended up in Houston, Texas on the Northside of town. He needed a job and wanted to work. We hired him, and he helped us with the upkeep of our rental properties. He loved our dog, Tank, who was a black and brown dachshund. He took care of him when the need arose. We also had another dog, named Chiquita, a Yorkshire Terrier, and he liked her, as well. He would feed them or give them baths. One day, our cousin Al, invited Amado to attend church at Apostolic Life Tabernacle. Amado did attend and in so doing, surrendered his life to Christ. Amado repented of his sins, was baptized in Jesus Name and received the gift of the Holy Ghost, just like the Apostles in the book of Acts the second chapter and the 38th verse. While Amado did attend church, he had many challenges in his walk with the Lord. Al often invited Amado to go with him to Sabine Pass to go fishing and they would include Tank. Our family included him in our family dinners and our Church Family included him on many outings as well. He will be greatly missed.
