🌟 Employee Spotlight: Arturo Garza 🌟
As a continuation of our Employee Spotlight series, today we are proud to recognize Arturo Garza, a dedicated employee of the City of Three Rivers since 1981. For more than four decades, Arturo has faithfully served our community with hard work, commitment, and dependability.
As the City’s main Backhoe Operator, Arturo is known for being one of the first to arrive and one of the last to leave. Rain or shine, Arturo shows up ready to work and give his all. According to his supervisor, Claudio Cantu, Arturo is a dependable employee and a valuable part of the City team. Not only is he a skilled operator, but he also takes initiative—if a job needs to be done, Arturo is never afraid to step down from the equipment and lend a helping hand wherever needed.
Throughout his years with the City, Arturo has made tremendous progression and continues to be a dedicated employee who takes pride in his work. Outside of work, Arturo is a devoted member of Sacred Heart Catholic Church and faithfully attends services.
Family means everything to Arturo. He has two children, both graduates of Three Rivers ISD, and today he is blessed with seven grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. His daughter shared a special memory of her father, remembering that he used to walk to work before one day purchasing the blue truck he still owns today. That truck became more than just transportation—it represented hard work, determination, and a milestone in his life. To this day, Arturo continues to take tremendous pride in it, keeping it clean, maintained, and cared for with the same dedication he gives to everything else in life.
With a birthday celebration coming soon, we want to thank Arturo Garza for his years of dedication and service to the City of Three Rivers. We appreciate everything he does for our community!
