Obituary

With deep sadness, we announce the passing of Julian Esqueda, who left us peacefully at his home in Hollister, California, on August 11, 2025, at the age of 86. Julian was born on October 18, 1938, in the small town of Corcovada, San Luis Potosi, Mexico. He was a devoted husband to Teresa Esqueda and a loving father to Minerva, Aracely, and Amado. He was also an incredible grandfather who adored and spoiled his grandchildren, and a respected father in law who was loved like a second father. Before coming to the United States, Julian worked for 25 years as a general manager at a well known company in Mexico, where he earned admiration for his dedication, hard work, and leadership. In 1988, he moved to California, where he continued working in a poultry farm until his retirement. Even after retiring, Julian kept the same drive and work ethic. He stayed active, selling, and staying busy. He was a man who never gave up, no matter the challenge. One of Julians greatest joys was traveling, especially returning to his beloved hometown with his wife to spend time with family and friends. He will be remembered for his kindness, his hard working spirit, and the love he gave to everyone around him. He is survived by his children Minerva, Aracely, and Amado; his grandchildren Fernando, Minerva, Elian, and Emilio; his sons in law Sergio and Gloria; and his brothers Candelo and Santos. His memory will forever live in the hearts of his loved ones.
