Robert Alvear

June 7, 1943 — October 26, 2019

He Only Takes the Best: God saw you getting tired, and a cure was not to be; So he put his arms around you, and whispered, “Come to me”. With tearful eyes we watched you, and saw you pass away; Although we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, Hardworking hands to rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best”. Roberto Alvear, 76, passed away peacefully surrounded by his loving family on October 26, 2019, in San Antonio, Texas.
