Louis P. Ceniceros, Jr.
April 03, 1948 - April 20, 2017
Retired United States Army Master Sargent Louis P. Ceniceros Jr., age 69, of Lawton went to his heavenly home on Thursday, April 20, 2017, at Integris Baptist Medical Center in Oklahoma City.
On October 5, 1973, Louis, a young soldier from Texas, married Grace Velasquez and whole heartedly committed to loving her and her four children. This marriage drastically improved and changed all of their lives forever. Louis became a devoted husband, father, grandfather (Papa), and great grandfather. His love was unconditional, sacrificial, and had no limits. His life was dedicated to his wife and his family. He joined the United States Army where he was a Vietnam War Veteran. He served in several overseas tours including Vietnam, Europe and Asia. While in the Army he received a Silver Star, four Bronze Stars and two Purple Hearts along with numerous other awards, medals and citations. He was a story teller, a prankster, and a fun Papa. He was a lover of his Lord Jesus Christ, good food, John Wayne and war movies. He was a horrible fisherman, but to him fishing trips were more about eating a big early breakfast with family. Louis was a member of the Bible Baptist Church and a member of the Masonic Pilot Lodge No. 367. He had special nicknames for many of his grandchildren and great grandchildren. He will always be loved and dearly missed by all of his family and friends.

Ceniceros Sr.; his mother, Lou Ella Miller; his step-mother, Jeannie Ceniceros; his brother, Tom Ceniceros; and his son Andres Morales, Jr. He is survived by his wife, Grace Ceniceros; their three children, Gabriela Dismuke and husband Randy; Marguerite Wood and husband Jerry Don; and John R.
