Hector Michael Costilla Jr., 59, passed on from this life on Wednesday, February 20th, 2019. Mike was a dedicated and loving husband, father, and grandfather. Mike enjoyed a successful career as a telecommunications technician in the Dallas area. Throughout his life, however, Mike attributed many titles—some of those being: dancer, baseball/football/basketball coach, bacon fryer, cheesy-egg maker, teller of jokes, and drinker of beer. A trip to the beach was Mike’s idea of a good time, bringing along an endless collection of music and his personal variation to lyrics. Not only was Mike easy-going, but his talent was immeasurable. From woodwork to gardening and building computers, he was skillful in all that he did. Mike was a person who made every day better and was as kind to a stranger as he was a friend. Mike’s love for life will forever live on within the life of his wife, Lisa Ann Espenhover; his son, Michael Shane Costilla and his wife Nina Costilla, their children Aksel and Mila; his daughter, Alyssa Costilla McFail and her husband Robbie McFail; his son, Brant Edward Costilla and his wife Ashley Costilla, and their son’s, Maddox and Kane.

Rest In Peace sweet Mike. It was a pleasure meeting and knowing you. A wonderful man and extremely kind soul. You will be missed!♥️
Mike was one of the kindest, funniest, loving men that i know and was always a pleasure to be around.
I’m sure he’s got all the Angels laughing at his silly jokes and God just shaking his head…
Soar high with those Angels sweet friend! You will be missed terribly.
To this day when I make eggs, which is every morning, I think of Mike and his cheesy-eggs. I loved his spirit and his smile. I loved his generosity and kindness. He will be missed. I pray God’s peace to Lisa, Shane, Alyssa and Brant and their significant others and children.
