Jose Alfredo Mijares, age 57 of Houston, Tx, left this earth to begin his eternal life on May 5, 2026, surrounded by all who loved him. Fred, as we all knew him, was born February 3, 1969, in Harlingen, Tx to Manual and Dolores Mi Read Obituary
Fred was definitely a character. I had the privilege of working with him for a few years and there was never a dull moment with him. We would talk about heavy metal, religion and just life in general. My introduction to Fred was when we didn’t know much of each other so we decided to share our testimonies. Turns out we had a lot in common and God had a purpose for us still being around. Fred would come to my office just to talk or ask for prayer. He was funny and gentle. I still miss seeing him at work and randomly doing some funky dance moves just to get a laugh or a smile.
One of my favorite memories of Tio Fred will always be watching him cut a rug with my husband on my wedding day. In that moment, you could see exactly who he was — full of life, joy, laughter, and so much love for the people around him. He had a way of making every room feel warmer simply by being in it.
Tio Fred was a man of many things, but the greatest thing he ever was, was family. The love he carried for those he loved was deep, genuine, and unwavering, and that is something I will hold close to my heart forever. I feel truly blessed to have known him, to have laughed with him, and to have shared this life with him.
Some people leave behind memories, but Tio Fred leaves behind a legacy of love that will continue living through all of us who were lucky enough to know him. I’ll miss you more than words can say, Tio. Until we meet again.♥️
