Obituary for Refugio Varela It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that we announce the passing of Mr. Refugio Varela (77) but we rejoice in the fact that he is no longer suffering and has gone to be with our Lord and Savior. He fought a courageous battle with Cancer. He was born to Juana Varela on November 26, 1940 in El Paso, Texas.
Proud graduate of Bowie High School, class of 1960 where he excelled in football. He enlisted in the U.S. Army where he proudly served our great country. He was also a Dallas Cowboy fan.
He is survived by his beautiful wife Anita Varela of 60 years and his children, Santiago R. Varela (Maggie), Grace V. Terrazas (Albert), and Richard J. Varela. He was blessed with 8 grandkids and 9 great grandkids. He will be greatly missed and we look forward to the day we are reunited.
