Ready for a little amazing? He lives in Ciudad Juarez Chihuahua Mexico and crosses the bridge every day into El Paso, Texas. It gets a little hot and a little congested and a little patrolled but Roy has NEVER been sick or late one day in seven years. His work ethic alone is an inspiration and role model for younger associates just joining the workplace.
The “amazing” continues. He has been married 35 year to a retired primary school director, Erostina. They have eight sons and five daughters! And they were able to contribute to all thirteen college degrees their children possess. They are now coaching the development of thirty-seven grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren.
He and Erostina also own a flower shop and banquet equipment company in Juarez, Mexico that does quite well. He has time to watch the Anaheim Angels on television and play dominoes because his personal mantra is “life is too short not to have a good time living it.” He should know about life. Roy Bacerra is 74 years old.
“Roy never says ‘no’. He always says, ‘There’s a way – let’s find it.’ Personally and professionally he gives awesome advice that goes a long way” Abe Munoz, Banquet Captain states affectionately.
He’s known around the Holiday Inn as the Energizer Bunny. Another shout out as he passes swiftly by, “Open your eyes and mind and listen… you might just learn something.”
