Alberto Núñez, 74 of Waldron, Arkansas passed away Friday, June 28, 2024 in Fort Smith, Arkansas. He was born April 8, 1950 in Corregidora Qro, Mexico to Damazo Núñez Flores and Gonifacia Hernandez Jaimes.
Alberto came to the United States of America with a dream for a better life. He met the first love of his life Betty. They were married and stayed together until she passed away in 2006. In 2007, he met the second love of his life, Hortensia. They would marry and stay together until she passed in 2009. In all those wonderful years he took under his wing five very special nephews because he had no children of his own: Martin, Jaime, Jose N., Carlos and Jose P. Alberto made sure they kept their Mexican traditions along with new American ones. He loved each of these gentlemen like they were his sons. Together they all loved to go night fishing with their Uncle. They would sit, talk and make many memories together.
Alberto leaves behind to cherish his memory four siblings: Felix Núñez Hernandez, Pueblito Núñez Hernandez, Irene Núñez Hernandez and Poula Núñez Hernandez. Uncle also leaves behind his nephews: Martin Núñez and Diane Pogue, Jaime and Charlotte Núñez, Carlos and Maria del Rosario Zuniga Dlvera Sanches, Jose Núñez and Libby Norskow; Alberto’s God son , Mr. & Mrs. Jose Palacios and many great nephews and nieces. May they always cherish the many memories and experiences they had with him. He loved each and every one of them dearly. Alberto will be deeply missed here and in Mexico.
Alberto was preceded in death by his parents: Damazo Núñez Flores and Gonifacia Hernandez Jaimes; two sisters, Guadalupe Núñez Herandez and Rosa Maria Núñez Hernandez; and one brother, Leobardo Núñez Hernandez.
