Juan Jose Canul Jr. age 82, a lifelong resident of Brownsville, Tx. Entered eternal rest on September the 15th 2025, surrounded by his loved ones while holding hands. He is preceded in death by his parents Juan P. Canul and Guadalupe Sanchez Canul. His siblings Victor, Maria Elena Garza, Irma Canul, Melecio and Ruben Canul. Left to cherish his memory is his spouse Maria del Socorro Canul and his five children, Johnny (Shasta) Jerry (Bertha) Lisa (Nancy) Victor (Michelle) Corrie (Rollie) and sixteen grandchildren and seventeen great grandchildren. He was a devoted Catholic parishioner at St. Mary’s Church. Our father served with honor as a Sergeant in the United States Army National Guard. The three things that our father is known for is his faith and love for God, his children and his unwavering love and devotion that he had for his wife. Our father knew he had met his soul mate the minute he laid eyes on her. So much that he won her heart in a boxing match that set their journey for the rest of their lives. He will always be our CHAMP!
