Filiberto Arreola

August 22, 1955 - May 28, 2021

Mr. Filiberto Chavez Arreola, age 65, of Corsicana returned to his Heavenly Father on May 28th, 2021. Filiberto loved his family deeply and was the most hardworking man that we will ever know. He always put himself last and his family first no matter what. He was self-less, fair, tough, hilarious and always had his family’s best interest at heart. He wanted everyone to learn; learn to fend for themselves, learn to grow as a person, learn to love your entire family and be united always. He had his purpose in this life, and it was to guide his family down the right path because he knew how scary life could be. Filiberto was the 2nd of 13 children. He was born in Cd. Juarez, Chih., Mexico on August 22, 1955. He is survived by his mother Guadalupe Chavez Ledezma (84) along with 11 of his brothers and sisters. Filiberto met and fell in love with his wife, Rosalia Morales Arreola in Cd. Juarez. They married on May 15th, 1975 and had 7 children: Filiberto Jr (44), Jorge (40), Alejandro (39), Carlos (37), Laura (35) and Sandra (33). He has 20 grandchildren whom he loved very much. Filiberto has left a wonderful legacy behind him and will never be forgotten. Filiberto was a man who loved to learn and was very driven. He was a “jack of all trades”. He built homes, furniture, fences, and trailers while having a full-time job as a Master Oiler of 40 years. He loved going to the “pulga” and pawn shops because he loved tools so much and needed them for his next project. He also loved singing (specifically, karaoke) and made numerous videos throughout his life. He was always thinking ahead and looking for the next challenge. He never shied away from a challenge. Pops always said, “Echale chingasos a la Vida.” He always faced everything head on, which he has instilled in his entire family. Filiberto touched many people with his wisdom and big heart. He will be missed very much. His kind heart and tough demeaner is what made him the best husband, father and grandfather that we could’ve ever asked for. We love and will miss you dearly.
