Chris B Jimenez, Sr.

August 16, 1946 - February 13, 2022

Cresencio Barrientos Jimenez was born on August 16, 1946, in Lifford Texas to Prospero Andres Jimenez and Maria Barrientos Jimenez. A beloved Son, Father, Brother, Uncle, Grandfather, and Great-Grandfather he was. Cresencio was called home by our Heavenly Father at the age of 75 on February 13, 2022, after a brief battle with Covid 19. He is preceded in death by his parents Prospero and Maria Jimenez, his siblings Janie Cardenas, Guadalupe Saenz, Ramona Soto, Ydolina Villanueva, Vicki Woodard, and his daughter Maribel Jimenez. Cresencio is survived by his wife of 52 years Maria Ayala Jimenez, his children Cresencio Jimenez Jr., and Juan Jose Jimenez all of Exeter, CA. and by his many nieces, nephews, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. Cresencio worked hard his whole life until he was able to accomplish his life long dream of purchasing a home for his family in Exeter, CA which he was happy to call home for the past 33 years. He was forced into early retirement in 2000 due to a work related back injury. Since then, he has enjoyed spending time with his family. He was a man known to many for speaking his mind while not worrying if he was hurting your feelings but also a man with a big heart that would help you out if he could no questions asked. He was also known as a joker to his grandchildren as he was always making them laugh. He is gone but he will never be forgotten. He is loved more than words can express and will be dearly missed by all of us!!! Services have been entrusted to Salser & Dillard Funeral Chapel.
