Encarnacion "Chon" Treviño Jr., 71 was called by the Lord on Saturday, September 17th, 2016, surrounded by his family in Laredo, Texas.
"Chon", as he was affectionately known to his family and friends, was born on January 1st, 1945, in Laredo, Texas to Encarnacion Treviño Sr. and Juana "Juanita" Riojas.
His love for music started at the age of thirteen years old. He was a well known accordionist. He was the author, composer, and musical arranger of the famous cumbia "EL APOLLO 15"".

Chon was also employed with Pro 8 News, as camera man. He loved being behind the camera and taking videos. He was a photographer and video camera man for wedding, quinceañeras, birthday parties and other special occasions. He also had a sound system, Coyote's Sound System, with his long life friend Juan "Coyote" Rodriguez. He recorded songs with his childhood friend Roberto "Robe" Juarez.
His biggest joy in life was his family. He truly loved being surrounded by his family and snd spending as much time as possible with them. He loved to have carnes asadas and play music.
