Eduardo Hernandez Tovar

Eduardo H. Tovar passed away on July 03, 2025, at the young age of 78, surrounded by his family in Austin, Texas. A Native Texan, Eduardo embraced his inner cowboy as he adorned himself with fresh pressed shirts, pristine Stetsons, perfectly polished boots, and a prominent belt buckle. His appearance was a source of immense pride for him. Eduardo was infamously known for being a man of many hats (Literally). When he was not in full Cowboy gear, gliding around the dance floor; he was at home looking for the next DIY project he could get his hands on. The joke around the family was that if you could dream it, he could build it — because no task was too big or too small for him. Aside from his handsome appearance and hardworking attitude, Eduardo was above all else a true man of God. His faith remained unwavering throughout his life, a testament to the divine influence in his journey. Despite facing illnesses and near-death experiences, Eduardo never blamed God for his trials. Instead, he continuously expressed gratitude for his life, friends, and family. Eduardo’s passing brings deep sorrow to those who loved him. However, those who truly knew him understood that this life was merely a temporary place holder until he was reunited with our Lord. As we mourn the loss of a remarkable man, let us remember his free spirit and life is too short attitude. Eduardo, the “Cowboy,” never dwelled on regrets but always looked towards the future and God’s promises. Eduardo was preceded in death by his father, Victor Tovar; mother, Rebecca Tovar; sister, Rosaura Tovar; and brothers, Raymundo and Rosario Tovar. He is survived by his former wife Minerva Tovar, daughters Rebecca (Gerardo) Figueroa; Patricia (Peter) Mwangi; and Lali (Mariana) Tovar. Four grandchildren and three great grandchildren; brothers Jose Luis Martinez, Lorenzo (Maria) Tovar, Jacobo (Teresita) Tovar, Victorio Tovar, Felipe (Gina) Tovar, and Jorge (Martha) Tovar. A Celebration of Life will be taking place on Sunday, July 20, 2025, to commemorate the memory and life of Eduardo H. Tovar. The event will be hosted at The American Legion (1000 N Georgetown St, Round Rock, Texas 78664) from 2:00 pm - 6:00 pm.
