Salvador G. Luna

Salvador Luna, 82 years old, passed away Friday, July 12, 2024, in his hometown of San Diego. He was born on June 18, 1942, in San Diego, Texas. Salvador was a heavy equipment operator by occupation, but his favorite was the backhoe. Throughout his years it was known to call Bave if you needed a field cleared or a hole excavated. He and his brother, Rico, would help anyone who needed it, but mostly it was because they had fun doing it and they wanted an excuse to get everyone together and hang out. Salvador also liked camping, fishing, BBQing and the Dallas Cowboys. Mostly, he enjoyed it when his family gathered around him. He was a quiet man, but you could always tell by the way he looked that he loved sitting and watching everyone just enjoy each other. Salvador was loved by all and will be sadly missed.
