Felix J. Salsedo, 77, died Saturday, December 31, 2022, at his home in
Garden City, Kansas. He was born May 3, 1945, in Hayward, California, the
son of Felix D. and Virginia (Ramos) Salsedo. He married Olivia Franco
in Garden City, Kansas on September 27th, 2000, at First Assembly of
God.
Mr. Salsedo was a loving friend to all who knew him. He was a dedicated
member of Lakin Assembly of God, serving as a greeter for many years.
He had worked at Tyson for 19 years and had retired in 2012. He enjoyed
riding his motorcycle, cooking and grilling with his wife, watching his
grandkids grow up and was an avid Raiders fan. He is an example of
Christ's redeeming grace. He was a hardened man, who's heart was melted
by the touch of Jesus. His life changed dramatically in 1992 in Tyrone,
Oklahoma , at Cornerstone Church. When he found Jesus it gave him a
whole new structure in his life. He knew that God would never forsake
him nor leave him.
