Obituary: Henry M. Rivas Born to Adelaida Meza and Trinidad Rivas on 18, 1912, in Valpariso, Zacatecas, Mexico Henry was the youngest of four children and was born at the beginning of the Mexican Revolution. About a year after his birth, his mother, Adelaida, was widowed. She was left with three children to raise, a daughter having died at age 11 from a bout of diphtheria. Her oldest daughter, Josefa, was safegaurded by an aunt and brought to the United States shortly after Henry was born. Adelaida, through determination, resolve and La Divina Providencia, left Zacatecas with her two boys, Manuel and Enrique, in 1919 and arrived in San Gabriel, California in 1922. There, she and the boys joined the rest of the Meza clan — her brother and three sisters and their families. Henrys earliest memories were of his Mothers strength and bravery and he remained devoted to her for all of his life. As with any change, there was a period of adjustment. However, the boys thrived in their new surroundings. Henry was precocious and intelligent and quickly became the go-to guy in the family. He was also very enterprising and soon had a newspaper route and shoe shine stand. The families were very much involved in the San Gabriel Mission Parish and Henry became a staple serving as an altar boy and later as a guide leading celebrities and tourists around the grounds of the Mission. His fondest memories were of the Annual Fiesta Days, held every in San Gabriel. He performed in plays commemorating the founding of the Mission, he joined the folkloric dance troupes, and even toured with the group to perform in Mexico City. As many of you know, Henry has always been gregarious, the life of the party and has loved being on stage. If he wasn part of the performance, he was the designated MC! Henry graduated from San Gabriel Mission Grammar School and Alhambra High School. While attending Alhambra High, Henry discovered his penchant for woodworking. Some of the furniture pieces he built during the 30s are still in use in his daughters and grandchildrens homes. One of his first employers was the Molding Supply in Alhambra, California. Job Description: Operate various woodworking machines in the making of cabinets and other wood furnishings, operate such machines as planer, joiners, saws, and other machines, some construction work in carpentry. Henry worked there from 1937 to 1942. Somewhere around 1940, Henry made a fortuitous visit to Chihuahua, Chihuahua, Mexico. Relatives gave a great welcoming party and invited a neighbor, Margarita Fourzan. Henry charmed and was charmed by this neighbor, and when he revisited Chihuahua, he formally courted Margarita. As fate would have it though, Henry was drafted and the courtship became a truly long distance relationship when he was sent overseas. Henry served as a Tech/4, Sargent, Ordinance Department. He arrived in Europe on 19 1943, and participated in the Normandy, Northern France, Ardennes, Central Europe, Rhineland Battles/Campaigns. He received the European African Middle Eastern Campaign Medal, a Good Conduct Medal and a Victory Medal. He returned to the States on 14 1945, and was honorably discharged on 4 1945. According to stories related by Henry, his tour of duty in Europe was a wonderful experience where he met unforgettable individuals, toured the country and learned a smattering of French and German and used his Spanish language skills to great advantage. However, those stories were a glossing of the facts of the enormity of his participation and experiences — which were shared with the family only as recently as the 50th anniversary of D-Day. We, as a family, have always been proud of Henrys service to our country and grateful for the deep sense of patriotism instilled in us, but we now know him to be a true hero for having endured such trauma as that which remained vivid in his memory until the end of his life. During his tour of duty, his correspondence with Margarita continued and with only one or two Henry sightings between 1942 and 1945, they were married on 19, 1945. WOW what chutzpah on both of their parts! Especially on Margaritas part -- moving to a totally different country, leaving her family in Chihuahua, and moving in with Henrys family — whom she had NEVER met!! The marriage worked — Henry and Margarita celebrated 62 1/2 years of marriage before Margaritas passing in 2007. were made for each other — Henry being enterprising, hard working, providing the best for his family and Margarita being enterprising, hard working, supportive, loving, number one cheerleader, and the best dance partner ever!! Henry and Margarita lived in San Gabriel until of 1947, when they, their 3 month old first born, Rosa Maria Margarita, and Adelaida, moved to their first and only home in El Sereno. Second daughter, Ana Carolina, arrived in 1949 completing the family group. During this time, Henry worked at Vinnell Steel. In later visits to Dodger Stadium, Henry would proudly point out the sections of the stadium that he had helped forge and rivet. Vinnell Steel closed down, Henry worked at two separate wood framing companies until his retirement in 1977. During his working years, Henry most often would have a months long vacation. The family enjoyed car trips from L.A. to Washington State, L.A. to Acapulco, camping trips to Sequoia, Yosemite, and almost yearly visits to Chihuahua. Henry and Margarita were very involved in both All Saints Parish and Our Lady of Guadalupe Parish. Henry always readily volunteering to serve Mass or to usher. He became a member of the Knights of Columbus and was part of the founding group of the Guadalupe Society at All Saints. Additionally, Henry served with the local VFW and, after retirement, he served as President of the East Area Seniors Federation, attended adult education extension courses at ELAC, served on the Grand Jury, took daily 3-5 mile walks and just kept all around busy! Both Henry and Margarita were voracious readers, history buffs continued... |
