His eight grandchildren—Riley, Collin, Olivia, Mary, Chloe, Maddox, Maya, and Austin—were a constant source of joy and pride in his later years. Maximiliano treasured each moment spent with his family and delighted in their accomplishments, big and small.

Maximiliano was preceded in death by his beloved parents, Jose and Luisa Villarreal Longoria, as well as his brothers and sisters, whose names are remembered in the hearts of those who carry his family legacy.

A valued member of his community, Maximiliano dedicated forty-one years of his life as an electrician for Methodist Hospital, retiring in 2006. His commitment to excellence and genuine care for those he assisted left an enduring impression on colleagues and friends alike. He approached his work with professionalism and ensured that the hospital environment was safe and efficient for all who passed through its doors.

A Celebration of Life for Maximiliano will be held at a later date.
