David Delgado Campos Sr., 69, of Cuero, passed away on Thursday, March 19, 2026, after a resilient battle. He is now in eternal glory. Born on June 7, 1956, to the late Octaviano Romero Campos and Carmen Delgado Campos, David was a lifelong resident of Cuero. He attended Cuero Independent School District schools and graduated from Cuero High School in 1974.

At a young age, David began working in construction as an equipment operator, a trade he carried throughout his life. He was also known and remembered by many South Texas musicians for his talent on the bass guitar, having played with various Tejano and Conjunto groups over the years. His passion for music and his presence within the local music community left a lasting impression on those who knew him.

David was preceded in death by his grandparents; his sister, Sandra-Ruth; and his parents, Octaviano and Carmen.

He is survived by his brothers, Paul of Yorktown and Daniel of Cuero; his life partner, Cipriana Maldonado of Cuero; his daughter, Gina-Ashley Martinez of San Antonio; his son, David Delgado Campos, Jr., of Cuero; and his six grandchildren, Gabriel Sanchez, Ian Martinez, A'leaynah Campos, David Campos III, Mc'Kemzlii Campos, and Davion Campos.
