George Luis Villarreal

George migrated with his mom Simona at the age of 4 to Parlier, California from Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, Mexico. He attended elementary schools in Selma, soon transferring to McLane High School where he established a wrestling career. Following his high school education, George completed his AA through Fresno City College. As some of you may know, George was diagnosed with Epilepsy in his early childhood years, however it did not prevent him from attempting to complete daily activities as best as he could. George loved sports, especially bowling as his favorite, where he joined a local social bowling league and became an exceptionally successful bowler receiving awards, trophies, and attending state level tournaments throughout his lifetime. George had much love for bicycling as well to where you could always find him enjoying himself riding around town, or in some cases even long distances. Being outdoors engaging in camping, fishing, and hiking was what George looked most forward to with his lifelong friend, Eddie Sanchez. Sundays were an obvious favorite day for George as he got to root on for the Raiders, yet he enjoyed watching every game of the season as he could while sporting his most prized Raiders jacket. George is preceded in death by his parents. George is survived by his two sisters, brother-in-law, and three nieces. He will always be remembered for his level of perseverance, stubbornness, laughter, his way or no way attitude, caringness of his birds, and love for the Raiders and his Mountain Dew. On behalf of George’s family, we hold great appreciation and love to Eddie and his family for being not only being his Catalyst but earning the title of being his brother where they shared much joy together daily. An extended thank you to the Adjoin Program and C.V.R.C. for continuously supporting George in reaching his potential to live as independently and as content as he possibly could. George emigró con su mamá Simona a la edad de 4 años a Parlier, California desde Monterrey, Nuevo León, México. Asistió a la escuela primaria en Selma, y pronto se transfirió a la escuela secundaria McLane, donde estableció una carrera de lucha libre. Después de su educación secundaria, George completó su AA a través de Fresno City College. Como algunos de ustedes sabrán, a George se le diagnosticó epilepsia en sus primeros años de infancia, sin embargo, eso no le impidió intentar completar las actividades diarias lo mejor que pudo. George amaba los deportes, especialmente los bolos como su favorito, donde se unió a una liga local de bolos sociales y se convirtió en un jugador de bolos excepcionalmente exitoso recibiendo premios, trofeos y asistiendo a torneos a nivel estatal a lo largo de su vida. A George también le encantaba andar en bicicleta, por lo que siempre podías encontrarlo disfrutando andando por la ciudad o, en algunos casos, incluso largas distancias. Estar al aire libre participando en campamentos, pescando y haciendo caminatas era lo que más anhelaba George con su amigo de toda la vida, Eddie Sánchez. Los domingos eran un día favorito obvio para George, ya que se puso a animar a los Raiders, sin embargo, disfrutó viendo todos los juegos de la temporada mientras lucía su chaqueta más preciada de los Raiders. George es precedido en la muerte por sus padres. A George le sobreviven sus dos hermanas, su cuñado y tres sobrinas. Siempre será recordado por su nivel de perseverancia, terquedad, risa, su actitud de hacer o no hacer nada, el cuidado de sus pájaros y el amor por los Raiders y su Mountain Dew. En nombre de la familia de George, tenemos un gran aprecio y amor por Eddie y su familia por ser no solo su catalizador, sino también por ganarse el título de ser su hermano, donde compartían mucha alegría juntos todos los días. Un agradecimiento extendido al Programa Adjoin y C.V.R.C. por ayudar continuamente a George a alcanzar su potencial para vivir de la forma más independiente y contenta posible.
