Pueblo lost another one of its icons.

To many around town—and especially on the Eastside—Teofilo “Mr. Serna” was a familiar face and a bit of a legend. To our family at Double J Meats, though, he was much more than that. He was a longtime customer who became a dear family friend.

Mr. Serna first became friends with my dad, and that friendship lasted for decades. Through Dad, I was fortunate enough to get to know him myself. Somewhere along the way, we even discovered family ties back to Hernandez, New Mexico, which made that connection a little more special.

Mr. Serna was a World War II veteran, and over the years he shared stories with us about his time overseas and fighting in Europe. But he also told the simpler stories that made you smile—about how much he loved dancing, or how he would buy himself a six-pack of b**r for his birthday.

And if you spent much time on Pueblo’s Eastside, chances are you saw him walking. Mr. Serna was well known for making his way through the neighborhood, picking up aluminum cans along the streets to turn in for scrap.

Mr. Serna passed away at **101 years old**.

There aren't many people who get 101 years on this earth, and even fewer who leave behind the kind of stories, friendships and memories that Mr. Serna did.

We are grateful for his service to our country. But today, we're just as grateful for the man he was—the friend he was to our family and the mark he left on Pueblo and the Eastside.

Rest easy, Mr. Serna. It was truly an honor to know you. 🇺🇸

For anyone who would like to know a little more about the remarkable life Mr. Serna lived, La Voz Colorado published this wonderful story about him shortly after his 100th birthday:

Today our hearts are with the Musso family as they mourn the loss of Big Carl Musso — a true Pueblo legend, patriarch, farmer, businessman, husband, father, grandfather, and friend to countless people across Southern Colorado.

Some men build businesses. Some build families. Very few build an entire community around the values of hard work, humility, generosity, and love the way Carl did.

For decades, Carl Musso represented the very best of Pueblo. From farming the land, to feeding generations through Musso Farms and Musso’s Restaurant, to simply greeting customers by name with a smile and conversation — he made people feel valued. His legacy was never just produce, chile, sausage, or sweet corn. His legacy was people.

Our family had the privilege of knowing the Musso family first as customers, but over the years that relationship became something far more meaningful. During some of the darkest moments our family has ever faced, the Musso family stood beside us with compassion and generosity we will never forget.

That kind of kindness does not happen by accident. It comes from leadership, values, and example. It comes from men like Carl.

You can see a man’s true legacy in the family he leaves behind, and Carl leaves behind an incredible one. The entire Musso family has continued the same spirit of service, work ethic, and love for this community that Carl spent a lifetime building.

Pueblo lost one of its giants last night.

To the Musso family: please know our family is praying for you and grieving alongside you. Thank you for sharing Carl with this community for so many years. Men like him leave fingerprints on a city forever.

Rest easy, Big Carl. Your work here mattered.
