Hector Aguero, age 70, a long-time resident of Gilroy, passed away peacefully at his home, after a heroic battle with a lengthy illness. He was born in Del Rio, Texas, to Conrado and Narcissa Aguero, who preceded him in death. He was a friend to many and loved by all. He served his country in the Air Force as a Military Policeman, as well as serving in two wars. He was an Electrician by trade, a Master Story-Teller, was extremely humorous, witty, adventurous and a great athlete, who mastered everything he did, whether it be boxing, speedboating or motorcycle racing.
