Enrique Perez, Loving husband, partner, father and friend, passed away following complications of heart surgery on Wednesday, February 8, 2017 at the age of 40 in Austin Texas. Enrique, a beloved MC/DJ personality at Hot Tejano live steaming radio, based out of Austin, loved to play with computers, fish and explore.
Enrique was born in San Marcos, Texas on Monday, September 6th, 1976 to Esmeralda Perez. He graduated in 1996 from San Marcos High School. Following high school he worked for many years at Flex Tech Hose and Tubing in San Marcos. During that time he explored his passion for music by MC/DJ for Uprise Entertainment in San Marcos for over ten years. For Enrique, being a MC/DJ was a passion. For the past two years, Enrique has been the friendly face at the Commercial Parts counter of the Kyle AutoZone. Enrique loved to explore. He would get up in the morning, declare “Let’s go girls” and hop into the car with no destination in mind and discover a new place or share a unique adventure with his family. Those, whom didn’t share his passion for rising early, missed out and often imparted their disappointment that they didn’t get to share in his escapades. He loved to eat and try new foods. His catch phrase was “I’ve got this”, words which he even uttered as he went into lifesaving surgery. Enrique was talented with his computer and was working on a graphic arts degree where he could utilize his talents.
Enrique is survived by his loving wife and partner of six years Deborah Garcia, his mother Esmeralda Perez and step-father Tony Sandez, his children: Jariah Sandoval, Mikaela Perez, Sierra Sandoval, Ally Perez, Erick Ramsey Perez, Jaaziah Rane Perez, Aliyanna Journey Perez and. His wit will also be missed by his Father and mother-in-law Martin and Cecilia Garcia, his four sisters as well as his numerous nieces and nephews.
