Obituary

Arturo F. Medina Jr, born on January 21, 1929, was a beloved husband, father, and esteemed member of his community. Raised in Laredo, TX he showed resilience and leadership as the head-of-his-household at a young age. He eventually met the love of his life, Lilia Medina, and ventured out into the world, setting the foundation for his eventual entrepreneurial endeavors. After he returned to Laredo, he went on to gain the esteemed title of Mr. Laredo in 1952. He eventually settled in San Antonio, TX with his beloved wife and seven children where he started his first business. As a celebrated entrepreneur and cherished figure in his community, he became known for his unwavering faith and dedication to both his church and family. He was a member of St. James Catholic Church and served as a church attendant every Sunday. His strong yet compassionate nature earned him the love and admiration of all who had the pleasure of knowing him throughout his 94 years.

On October 24, 2023, surrounded by his loving family, Arturo passed away, leaving behind a legacy of hard work, integrity, and discipline.

In his journey, Arturo was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Lilia Medina, his sons Arthur (Tudy) and Richard Medina, his daughter Iran Medina, his son-in-law Oscar Balderas, as well as his dear sisters and brothers. Now, as he is reunited with his loved ones in Heaven, his legacy will continue to live on through his family. Arturo's contributions to the church and his community, and his profound impact on the lives of those around him will be forever remembered and celebrated.

He is survived by his children, Patricia Linda Medina, Yolanda Medina Beverly, Alejandro Medina (Marie), Eddie Medina; extended children, Clara Medina and Maria Medina; 17 grandchildren, 31 great grandchildren, and 15 great great grandchildren.
