Julian Soliz, born on March 1, 1935 in the small town of Beeville, Texas. He worked for and retired from Powell Industries as a welder.  He was known for being a family man, a good friend, a farmer, unbelievably calm and always took the time to visit.   Once he was able to buy his own property, he looked out in the country and found a place big enough for a beautiful house for his wife Graviela of 56 years and his farm animals, which consisted of chickens, ducks, rabbits, goats, cows, pigs, turkeys, dogs, cats, doves and even peacocks.  He loved making parties with his wife and invited everyone he knew to listen to good music, dancing and delicious food.  We will forever cherish the good memories he left behind.
