LEANDRO GUERRERO

ALAMO - Leandro Guerrero, 77, passed away Saturday, April 25, 2026, at HCA Houston Healthcare Medical Center in Houston.  

Leandro was a devoted husband, loving father, proud grandfather, and hardworking man whose life was centered around family. He shared a deep and lasting love with his wife, and together they built a life rooted in love, strength, and devotion. He was a proud father who cherished his children and found his greatest joy in the family they created together, especially in the love he shared with his grandchildren.

He had a deep passion for baseball, a game he enjoyed not only for the sport itself, but for the memories and connection it brought. Whether cheering from the stands, watching a game, or sharing stories about his favorite teams, baseball was part of who he was.

As a dedicated truck driver, Leandro spent many years on the road, including 24 proud years driving for Spirit Truck Lines. He worked hard to provide for his family and took great pride in his work, carrying with him a strong spirit, determination, and love for the open road. Truck driving was more than a profession to him — it was part of who he was.

He will be remembered for his hard work, his kind heart, his love of family, and the legacy he leaves through the many lives he touched. Though he will be deeply missed, his memory will live on in the stories shared, the lessons taught, and the love he gave so freely.

“A life well lived, a man well loved, and a legacy forever remembered.”

He is preceded in death by his parents, Cresenciano "Leandro" and Catalina G. Guerrero; paternal grandparents, Secundino and Concepcion B. Guerrero; maternal grandparents, Delfino and Leonides V. Gonzalez.
