Just 5 weeks after his brother, Ricky Valdez, entered the gates of Heaven, Gilbert Y. Valdez, Jr. joined him on May 12. 2020. Gilbert, also known to many as “Coon” was born and raised in Lockhart alongside his siblings, Rita, Ronnie and Gabriel. He was born on June 7, 1961 to parents Gilbert Y. Valdez, Sr. and Anita Gutierrez. Coon was 58 years old.
He enjoyed watching football, especially the Dallas Cowboys and the Texas Longhorns. Coon loved and pampered his beloved four-legged fur baby, Bambi. Bambi enjoyed his cooking and will greatly miss his companionship.

A host of relatives who will miss him greatly include his wife of 37 years Marie Valdez; mother Anita G.
