Susie Gallardo Rosales, 96, of Houston, Texas, passed away peacefully at her home on April 9, 2026, surrounded by her loving family. Born on February 5, 1930, in San Antonio, Texas, to Fernando and Lina Gallardo, Susie was the youngest of four children.

On May 1, 1949, Susie married Ruben Rosales, and together they built a life centered on family, eventually welcoming eight children—seven daughters and one son.


In 1964, the family relocated to Bellaire, Texas, where they made their home and created countless cherished memories.


An avid gardener, Susie could often be found tending to her yard and plants. Over the years, her passion and pride earned her numerous “Yard of the Month” awards—honors that never failed to bring a smile to her face. That same care and attention extended into her home and throughout her community. She had a generous heart and was always there for friends and neighbors in need. She also cared for many children in the community, treating each one as her own.


Above all, Susie’s greatest joy and lasting legacy was her family. Nothing made her happier than a home filled with smiling, laughing, singing, and dancing loved ones—her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. Whether for holidays, birthdays, or simple gatherings, she could always be counted on for a joke, a song, and making sure everyone had more than enough to eat and drink.


“WE R FAMILY” was more than just a phrase—it was a motto that reflected what she held closest to her heart, even celebrated on a couple of special occasions with matching shirts. More than anything, she wanted her family together.


To her children she was “Mom,” but to her grandchildren and great-grandchildren she was simply “Wela.” She filled their lives with love, laughter, and traditions they will carry with them always.


Wela’s home was a place of warmth, love and laughter. Mariachis were one of her favorite parts of any celebration, and she especially loved to sing along with them—her voice, her joy, and her spirit bringing those moments to life. She also loved singing songs in Spanish to the little ones, creating quiet, special memories they will always carry with them.


She will be remembered by all who knew and loved her as a warm, funny, and resilient woman of quiet strength. She overcame cancer and, in her later years, was lovingly cared for by her devoted daughter, JoAnne, reflecting the deep love and devotion within their family.


She was preceded in death by her parents, Fernando and Lina Gallardo; her brothers, Ricardo, Alfonso, and Johnnie; her son-in-law, Gilbert Evans; and her husband, Ruben Rosales.


She is survived by her beloved daughters, Rosalinda Lepow; Ruth Evans; JoAnne Rosales; Susana Perez (Daniel); Dolores Moseley-Hassan (Sion); Patricia Payer (Daniel); and Mary Ellen Anhaiser (Joey); her treasured son, Ruben Ross Rosales; her eight cherished grandchildren: Tyson and Jessica; Ryan, Krystal, and Samantha; Briana and Amber; and Nicolas; and her 18 great-grandchildren, with another arriving at the end of April 2026. She is also blessed with her surviving niece, Socorro Gallardo.


Susie’s enduring legacy is one of strength, kindness, and boundless love for her family—her greatest pride and joy.


In accordance with her wishes, a private service will be held for immediate family. We sincerely appreciate your understanding in honoring this request.


May she rest in eternal peace in the presence of Our Heavenly Father.

Robert Adamson Meek, II was born March 19,1946 in West Palm Beach, Florida and died of on April 6, 2026, in Houston, Texas. Bob had just turned 80 years old on March 19. “The years of our life are seventy, or even by reason of strength eighty.” (Psalm 90:10)

Known as ‘Robin’ to his family and ‘Bob’ to co-workers and friends, he loved people and thrived on being with them. Bob attended a beautiful worship service on Easter Sunday with extended family in Dallas. Bob returned home the next day in time to attend a birthday party held outdoors at a neighbor’s home. While holding a slice of key lime pie in his left hand and a bottle of beer in his right hand, and with friends nearby, Bob suffered cardiac arrest, slumped over in his chair, and passed away shortly thereafter.

A proud veteran of the United States Air Force, Captain Robert A. Meek served two tours of duty in Vietnam between 1969 and 1974. As a B-52 Aircraft Commander, he led more than 100 missions. Bob was recognized for demonstrating courage, discipline, and leadership under extraordinary circumstances. Among many military honors, the family is most proud that he was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross (DFC) medal.

Bob earned his degree from the University of Florida and continued to be an enthusiastic supporter of the Gators. He studied veterinary medicine at the University of Florida. His lifelong love for animals never left him. In his later years, it was expressed in his active rescue of vulnerable animals, particularly abandoned kittens. At the time of his death, Bob was housing nine kittens waiting to be adopted.

When Bob moved to Houston 25 years ago, he formed lasting friendships with his neighbors and with other golfers from the Hearthstone Country Club and those he volunteered with at non-profits such as: M.A.D.D., the Houston Rotary Club, the Houston SPCA, and the Houston Rodeo. Bob’s acquaintances became friends. He particularly enjoyed the annual Chili cook-off where he recently won, “Best Chili” award.

Robin is predeceased by his brother, Timothy Meek, and is survived by his daughter, Kimberly Cameron and his seven siblings: Sheryl Ann McKiernan (Bill), Cathy Noble, Stephen Meek (Ruth), Bill Meek (Valerie), Claudia Leider (Pat), Mark Meek, and Donna Meek as well as Aunt Helen Nemeth, and multiple cousins, including the Robinsons and Butlers, and many nephews and nieces. His 14-year-old rescue dog, Emily, will likely miss him most. All will miss his thoughtful birthday cards.

Bob’s funeral mass will be held on Monday, May 18 at 11:00 am at St. Elizabeth Seeton Catholic Church followed by a brief reception in Community Life Center (CLC). The church

address is 6646 Addicks Satsuma Rd, Houston, TX 77084 and their phone number is

(281) 463-7878. The mass will be broadcast “livestream” on the church website and made available for a few days afterward.

The family will attend a military honor guard ceremony later that afternoon at the Houston National Cemetery where Bob’s ashes will be laid to rest near his parents, Lt. Colonel Robert Adamson Meek and Barbara Jane Butler Meek.

If anyone desires to honor Bob with a memorial gift, in lieu of flowers, please donate to the Houston SPCA at https://houstonspca.org. The family will be notified of your gift. We thank you in advance for honoring Bob’s concern for needy animals.
