He was an even greater grandfather to his grandchildren. He was their "Popo." Epifanio was a truck driver, for which he had great passion. He will be greatly missed by his huge family who loved him dearly.

He was preceded in death by his sister, Rosalinda Flores and his grandparents, Manuel and Rosa Ybarra.
Those left to cherish his memory are his mother, Esperanza Ybarra Vaquera and stepfather, Arturo Vaquera of Plainview; two sons, Brian Keith Flores and wife Veronica of Denton and Daniel Elias Flores of Rio Grande, Texas; two daughters, Leah Sue Flores and Darline Flores Wences and husband Asuncion all of Denton; grandchildren Isaiah William Flores, Layla Ali, Saleem Ali Jr. Billy Joe Morales Jr., Destiny Ann Flores, Brian Epifanio Flores Jr., Daleah Brianna Wences and Baby Juelz Avalynn Wences.
