Nicolas Morales Contero

We are heartbroken to announce the passing of our father, Nicolas (Nico) Contero.  Nico passed away at his home in Mico, Texas at the age of 90 years old on February 14, 2023.  He was surrounded by his loved ones and is survived by his children, Nicholas Contero (Veronica); Guadalupe Rodriguez (John); Patricia Johnson (Rick); Tony Contero; Ray Contero (Jennifer) along with numerous grandchildren, great grandchildren, nieces, nephews and many friends.    

Nicolas was born on May 9, 1932 in Poteet, Texas. He was the sixth child of seven siblings leaving behind his only surviving brother Eusevio Contero. 

He was a custodian for 40 years for Northeast Independent School District, where he was recognized for his hard work and dedication.  He also worked at Coker United Methodist Church for many years.

Nicolas lived with his daughter, Patricia and her husband Rick Johnson for 30 years.  He moved with them from the city to the country where he enjoyed being outdoors more than anything.  He loved tending to the garden, planting flowers and maintaining the yard along with making all kinds of trinkets with rocks or whatever he could find.

At his request, the family will have a memorial service at the property on March 4, 2023 at 12:00 P.M.  Following will be a reception with all of his family and friends.

If you would like to order floral arrangements, please have them delivered to the funeral home one day prior to Wednesday, March 1, 2023. So that family can receive them for service.
