Lee Angelo Cruz
December 1, 1962 ~ January 18, 2015
Lee Angelo Cruz (Lebo) went to be with our Lord on January 18 2015, surrounded by family & close friends after 52 years of life. He was born on December 1, 1962, & raised in San Antonio Tx. He met his wife Delma in elementary school and they were together for 35 years. They have 3 daughters, who were the center of his world. He worked on arcade games & vending machines when he was younger, and his last job before becoming ill the past few years was as a tow truck driver for AAA, Allied Towing, and Texas Towing (under radio name Lima), where he made many great friends and took great pride in knowing he helped people who were stranded. He was a loving father, husband, son, brother, cousin & friend. He is survived by his wife Delma, daughters Kandice (& Ambrose), Max & Samantha Lee (& Bryan), as well as mother Marie Betancourt, younger brother Chevo Betancourt Jr., sister Roberta, numerous nephews and one niece, and cousin Sal Castilleja. He is preceded in death by his grandmother Elizabeth Barrera and father Chevo Betancourt Sr.. He will be missed very much and leaves a void in our hearts that we will try to fill with the great memories he left us.

Oh Lee, i am so sorry i didn’t get you to the hospital on time. I tried. I love you so much and am happy knowing your no longer in pain or suffering. You were tired. So tired of it all. We well be together again one day. Until then, watch after the girls. Keep them safe and away from danger. Just knowing you past in my passengers seat gives me cpmfort in knowing youll always be with me out there. My road dog forever…..MUAH!!
Lee you will be missed very much. We love you. Delma we love you! From the Gonzales Family. Angie, Robert, Alice (comadre) and Rosie.
I love you dad and will miss you for the rest of my life…31 years wasn’t enough time….I’m glad you are not in anymore pain….me, mom, max & sam will take care of each other…i love you. PS you still owe me $20 for betting against the Cowboys Mr. “Double or nothing”
To Delma, so sorry to hear of your loss. At this time there are not many words that can comfort you. The pain and saddness can be overwhelming. I lost my husband, and was left with feelings of guilt. Did I not call EMS fast enough. In the days to come many questions will fill your mind and heart. What helped me was drawing close to God. Jehovah has answers to all our questions. Job asked him Job 14:14 Ãf a man dies, can he live again” Job knew the answer and said ¨you will call and I will answer¨. Delma God promises a resurrection of our loved ones. They will wake up to a better life with no pain. Right now your loved one sleeps and is resting Eclesiastes 9:5,10 promises that. To me that was comforting. I hope these scriptures help you in this time of saddness. You can find more answers http://www.jw.org

I had your picture up Saturday night to watch the fight, we were so excited to order it at our (Ambrose & I) new house, but that day was too late. I also had your photo up yesterday for the Superbowl…I miss you so much & love you so much more
I knew Lee from back in the days, we used to know one another when I lived on Marquette. He was a good guy. Vaya Con Dios
Sorry we didn’t have more time together bro. I will miss our conversations, all our laughs and giggles. I know in my heart your are free of all the pain from being sick. I feel selfish for not wanting to let go of you. I know you will be around me if only in spirit. Heaven is where you belong, to fly free with the angles my Sweet Brother. My heart will be empty for awhile, but at the same time I find comfort to know you fly free with the angles. You are the Best Big Brother a Sister could have ever asked for. I miss you and Love you Brother…
No Delma you dont know me. I am was born and raised in San Antonio grew up in the S. Side off Theo-Malone. My Condolences go out to you from the heart. I am a widow myself. I lost my husbad when he was only 42 and I know how hard it can be to lose the pilar of your home. What helped me get through my pain was Gods promise, and I find much comfort in sharing these promises with other families as your self. It helps me keep focus and moving forward. People say time will heal. And it does but it gets harder before it gets better. Death leaves us with so many questions, and God answers them all. God promises to be near us. Psalms 46:1 God is our refuge and strength. A help that can be readily found in t imes of distrerss¨ . bocarde70@gmail.com.

Lebo, i never in my wildest dreams could i ever imagine going thru the rest of my years without you. My days are so long and dark lately. Every thing i see, hear, or smell takes me rigjt back to you. I dont know when iwe well be together again, just know i now look forward to it. You were so scared of dying alone, i promisrd you i wouldnt let that happen, and i kept my promise. You said you would always look after us, and be with us, and i know you well. You are much more that a husband now, for you are my gaurdian angel.. MUAH!! XOXO, D. N C.
Delma, Kandy, Maxy, & Sammy I am so sorry to hear about Lee’s passing. I only found out tonight from just messing around on Google and searching old friend’s names. My thoughts are with you in your time of loss. I always will have good memories of hanging out with you at your mom’s house. (G-ma). Stay strong and life goes on. Richard.
I miss you brother, I want so much to pick up the phone & tell you so much. You left too soon, though I know you were tired, my heart is still a little selfish brother. Until we meet again mI will hold you deep in my heart forever.
