Telesforo "TJ" Gonzalez

TJ Gonzalez, 38, of Odessa TX, passed away on Friday, August 9, 2024, in Kermit, TX.

TJ Gonzalez was born in San Angelo, TX to Telesforo F. Gonzalez and Juanita Gonzalez on March 14, 1986. He went to school in Odessa where he lived, worked, and met the love of his life. He married Cyndi Gonzalez on June 13, 2011, at the Ector County Courthouse with their immediate family as witnesses. They had their first beautiful child, Zoe, shortly after and remained a happy family of three for four years until they had their second pride and joy, Ethan, completing their family of four. TJ held his family as utmost priority and made sure they were always cared and provided for. He was known to everyone as a role model with a big heart, brotherly, and someone they could always count on. TJ loved snowboarding with his family, fishing with his cousins, playing video games with his friends and children, and cooking an excessive amount of food for his loved ones. TJ will be missed by many but never forgotten.

The Gonzalez family wishes to extend our sincere thanks to all of our family and friends that have provided the love, support and prayers to hold us up during this extremely difficult time.
