Edelmiro Rivas, 79, of Portland, Texas, passed away on October 29, 2025.
Born in Los Ebanos, Texas, Edelmiro was a proud and strong man who served his country in the United States Army before building a long career as a chemical plant technician with DuPont. Known for his skillful hands and determination, he could fix just about anything.
Above all, Edelmiro loved his family deeply—especially his devoted wife, children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. His strength, love, and steady presence will be dearly missed by all who knew him.
A public visitation will be held on Friday, November 14, at 11:00 a.m., followed by a service at 12:00 p.m. at Winstead’s Funeral Home in Portland, Texas. Military honors and interment will take place at 1:45 p.m. at the Coastal Bend State Veterans Cemetery in Corpus Christi, Texas.
Edelmiro will be forever remembered for his strength, his kindness, and the love he gave so freely. His legacy will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved him.
