Remembering Jimmy

A life held close in memory

Jimmy Nunez lived and worked in San Antonio and was known to those close to him as a devoted husband and father. Public records and local reporting identify him as 36 years old at the time of his death on January 27, 2016. Friends and family who spoke at later court proceedings described the profound void his loss left in their daily lives; a spouse, Diana Nunez, addressed the court during sentencing, speaking to the lasting grief the family endures.

Though public accounts focus on the circumstances surrounding his death, the available records indicate Jimmy was an everyday member of his South Side neighborhood — someone who kept close ties with family and whose absence is still felt by those who survived him. Reporting from local news outlets places him at a mobile home on Oak Island Drive that had been used as an informal gaming location; he was 36 when deputies found him on the night of January 27, 2016.

In the years after his death the criminal case drew media attention and eventual sentences for those convicted, but the human story remains: a husband and parent whose life and relationships mattered deeply to family and friends. Because no published funeral-home notice or family-authorized obituary matching his name and the exact date of death could be located in the public record, this remembrance focuses on verified facts and the reality of his loss rather than unconfirmed personal details.

Jimmy’s life is honored here by centering the reality that he was a person with family who continue to carry his memory forward. For those who knew him, his name recalls home, family obligations, and the everyday connections that define a life.
