Xystus Flores Aseron, age 74, returned back to his God and Creator on October 29, 2026, surrounded by his immediate family, at Covenant Medical Center, Lubbock, Texas.

He was born on March 7, 1952, in Naujan, Mindoro, Philippines. He and his family migrated to the USA in April 2003.

He loved teaching through the next 20 years and retired in June 2025. He was a passionate, inspiring and respected educator, sharing to his students the importance of completing studies in any field where one is interested in is a big step towards a better and purposeful future.

Xystus valued the simple things in life and the time he shared with those closest to him. His kindness, wisdom, and quiet dedication were reflected in the way he lived, and the care he showed to others.

To his family, his wife of 48 years, their five children and grandchildren, he will be fondly remembered for his unconditional love, never-ending guidance and support, the constant source of inspiration, courage and comfort. He had a gentle and quiet spirit, a man of few words, but his presence was appreciatively felt. He was naturally generous, giving and sharing from his substance.

He was a man of faith, a practicing Catholic and lived out his Christian values, aiming to teach and share his faith to the family by living the Word of God. He was full of enthusiasm to make his contribution to leave a better world to his grandchildren and their generation by joining and supporting causes against injustice, inequality, dishonesty and corruption in government. He loved Nature and religiously did recycling and made contributions to projects and campaigns protecting and healing Mother Nature.

He loved to travel with his wife and family to see the world and learn cultures. He encouraged his children to put importance to travel as an investment to their education.

His earthly journey amongst the living on earth may have ended, but the legacy he left behind shall live on, passed on in the memories of those he touched, taught and loved.
