He is survived by a loving family including his father Johnny Villasenor, Jr.; Mother, Monique Villasenor; sister, Jennifer and brother, Jacob. He is also survived by his maternal grandparents Larry and Martha Baeza and Gloria "Gramie Pie"Guzman and paternal grandmother, Dolores Villasenor along with many aunts, uncles, and cousins. He was preceded in death by his grandfather, Johnny Daniel Villasenor, Sr. Johnny had a big heart and wore it on his sleeve. He made many friends and touched many lives during his short time of life. He was very special, kind, loving, caring, understanding, considerate and always thought of others before himself and made everyone laugh with his silly faces and unique personality. Johnny never met a stranger and would befriend anyone who would let him. He will forever be in our hearts. Your time with all of us went by so quickly. You were taken from us too soon. There will not be a day go by where we won't think of you. You will be dearly missed. If he were here today, I know he would tell all of his friends to be careful and cherish the time you have with family and friends. The Villasenor family would like any memorial contributions or love offerings be made to the Johnny Villasenor, III Memorial Fund at any Austin Bank location.
