Went through little Graceland a couple of years ago. Met Simon and felt a connection to him and his love for Elvis. What a kind loving man Simon was. As was Elvis.

so very sorry to learn of Simon's passiing. I wintered on Padre Island a few years ago and being a huge Elvis fan I visited Little Graceland a number of times. Mr Vega could not have been nicer. He created a very nice tribute to Elvis sorry to hear that it is now closed. R.I.P Simon and thanks for being so nice on our visits to your place

I had Mr Vega as a teacher at LFJHS. He put up with a lot from us but he was memorable. He did like to talk about his time with Elvis but not in a show off way. I feel blessed that I had both Mr. Vegas in my life.

Simon Vega put Los Fresnos, Texas, on the map. His enthusiasm and love for this city, as well as Elvis Presley, will always be in my memory. I have a fond recollection of Mr. Vega sharing his experience of meeting the King of Rock and Roll during his service in the military. He loved his students, his city, and his family. A good man, Simon Vega.

Mr. Simon was an amazing man with a huge heart. He welcomed me into his home and gave me a place to stay when i came to Texas. He treated me like family. For me he is family and always will be. I remember him showing me letters he had written to Teresa many years ago. How his face would light up. You could see it that she is the love of his life. I will for sure miss him. But i know he is in a much better place. May you Rest In Peace Mr. Simon. I love you.

Siento mucho su pérdida. En estos tiempos difíciles podemos ver cosas en mucha más escala que antes. Enfermedades,muerte,escases de alimentos,y otras cosas que la Biblia predijo. Aunque en las noticias solo vemos malas noticias, si hay buenas. Por ejemplo La esperanza de la resurrección. Dios ha prometido regresar a la vida a nuestro seres amados que han muerto. La Biblia da esta promesa:
DIOS ACABARÁ CON LA MUERTE
(1 Corintios 15:26) dice "Como el último enemigo, la muerte ha de ser reducida a nada." Así es, “el último enemigo”, es decir, la muerte que hemos heredado de Adán, habrá desaparecido para siempre. “La envoltura” que pesa sobre la entera familia humana será cosa del pasado. Además en otra parte de la Biblia menciona que Jesús, actuará como “un espíritu dador de vida” para los descendientes de Adán en general, pues les dará vida eterna. La mayoría de ellos ya han muerto, así que los resucitará para que vuelvan a vivir en la Tierra
(Juan 5:28, 29) dice:, " No se maravillen de esto, porque viene la hora en que todos los que están en las tumbas conmemorativas+ oirán su voz 29 y saldrán, los que hicieron cosas buenas a una resurrección de vida,+ los que practicaron cosas viles a una resurrección de juicio.*.¿ Notó la expresión que usó Jesús? “Tumbas conmemorativas.” Conmemorar es recordar, y eso es lo que hace Dios. Él, que creó el vasto universo, recuerda cada detalle de nuestros seres queridos que han muerto: su personalidad, sus cualidades, sus vivencias... (Is. 40:26.) Tiene la capacidad y también el deseo de recordar a quienes se han dormido en la muerte. Las resurrecciones de las que habla la Biblia, de las cuales efectuó Jesus son solo un anticipo de lo que ocurrirá a gran escala en el nuevo mundo que pronto llegará. Un último texto, Revelación 21:4, dice,"4 Y limpiará toda lágrima de sus ojos, y la muerte no será más, ni existirá ya más lamento ni clamor ni dolor. Las cosas anteriores han pasado”. Estas cosa serán en el futuro y aquí mismo en la Tierra. Espero que haya encontrado consuelo en estas palabras. De nuevo siento mucho su pérdida.

Mr. Vega taught, if I recall 5th, 6th, or 7th grade history. I was in is class and the one thing I took from him was his patience in explaining the curriculum. My condolences go out to his entire family, circle of friends, and those who shared his love for history and Elvis Presley.
God bless you Mr Vega.

My thoughts and prayers go out to his family -- Simon was an institution in Los Fresnos --- I am reading the book Eva Garcia Hernandez (Roy Garcia's sister) wrote about growing up by Tandy 's corner and her family's life in LF --- as I read thru it Simon was mentioned in it several times which made a nice "walk down memory lane" for me ---- I believe he played on a baseball team the Garcia brothers played on .
Also a few years ago as we were traveling we stopped in Memphis and did the whole Elvis tourist thing --- I bought several books and as I read them I could not think of Elvis without thinking of Simon at the same time --- in my mind the two went together--- Simon is to thank for keeping the history of Elvis alive in Los Fresnos
May you rest in peace thy good and faithful servant.
