Tiburcio “Butch” Villarreal Salinas was born on August 04, 1967 in Piedritas, Coahuila Mexico to Nemecio Villarreal and Reyna Salinas. Tiburcio lived a life defined by hard work and an unwavering commitment to his family, always striving to give them more than he ever had growing up in Mexico. His kindness knew no bounds; he was a man who would help anyone in need without expecting a single thing in return. A true lover of life’s simple pleasures, he found joy in music, singing songs, the company of animals especially his dachshund Lady, and the sweetness of pan dulce. Known for his playful spirit, Tiburcio was a jokester who could lighten any room and was famous for giving unforgettable nicknames to all who knew him. Though he has passed on, the joy he brought to this world lives on in the hearts of everyone who was lucky enough to cross his path.
Tiburcio is survived by his spouse, Asucena “Susan” Villarreal, children Ivan Villarreal, Yovani Villarreal, and Alexandra Maria Villarreal. As well as three brothers and three sisters.
Tiburcio is preceded in death by his parents Nemecio Villarreal, Reyna Salinas, and his siblings Marcelo Villarreal, Margarito Villarreal and father-in-law Alvaro Hinojos.
