Hebbronville Texas has lost a wonderful man with a heart of gold. Robert “Big Bob” Gutierrez 62 local owner of the very popular Frank’s Cafe (known as Paco’s to all of South Texas) passed away on Monday August 8th, 2023.

Big Bob stood at the grounds of the Jim Hogg County Courthouse 9n Hwy 16 in Hebbronville Texas with signs saying ” Enough is Enough” and the sign listed all the names of all the Uvalde Students and Teachers who lost their lives to get the message across to Governor Greg Abbott and the legislatures.

He stood there in the heat all day long for days trying to get his message across to Abbott. Bob loved everyone he met and he will be missed by all of us that knew him.

If only our governor could have 1/2 the heart Big Bob had, our children would be safer in Texas!
