Prisciliano A. De La Cruz's Obituary
Prisciliano Alanis De La Cruz, born on January 4, 1937 in Mexico, passed away on November 9, 2024 in San Antonio, Texas at the age of 87. He is preceded in death by his parents, Graciano and Lilia De La Cruz; son, Jose Luis Q. De La Cruz; and daughter in law, Carol Ann Shumake De La Cruz. Prisciliano is survived by his wife, Lidia Q.

Prisciliano was a dedicated and loyal employee of VIA, from which he retired after many years of service. However, his love for working never stopped -- even in retirement, he continued to stay busy by cutting yards for neighbors and friends, always finding ways to help those around him. He spent much of his time outdoors, enjoying hunting, fishing, and camping, sharing these passions with his family and friends. He was an active member of his church, where he dedicated many years to the church choir and participated in numerous church activities. He was also a proud member of ACTS, a fellowship that brought him comfort and connection with others. Above all, Prisciliano was a loving husband to his wife, Lidia, and a devoted father to his children. He also cherished his role as a grandfather, finding joy in spending time with his grandchildren and watching them grow. He will be missed by all who knew and loved him.
