Encarnacion Guevara Turcios, 71, of Marshall, Missouri, passed away on Monday, October 26, 2026, at St. Luke’s Hospital in Kansas City.
He was born on April 7, 1955, in San Felipe, La Unión, El Salvador, to the late Miguel Ángel Guevara and Juana Turcios.
Encarnacion immigrated to the United States in the 1980s and settled in Marshall in the 1990s. He was proud to be one of the foundational members of Marshall’s Hispanic community, the place where he established his home and raised his family. A devoted husband, father, grandfather, and loyal friend, Encarnacion was an exceptionally sociable and caring man. He deeply enjoyed staying connected with those he loved, frequently calling family and friends just to check on their well-being. He was a faithful member of St. Peter Catholic Church.
He is survived by his beloved wife, Reina Larios; his four children, Pedro, Erick, Tais, and Vanessa; his four granddaughters, Ariana, Sofia, Nataly, and Camila; and his siblings, Vidal, Malgarita, Dionicia, Jose, Modesta, María, and Arsenia.
In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by two children, Glenda and Aristides, and two brothers, Rigo and Isidoro.
A funeral Mass will be held at 7:00 p.m. on Saturday, October 31, 2026, at St. Peter Catholic Church in Marshall. Following the Mass, a visitation will be held at the church and will continue until midnight.
Encarnacion will be laid to rest in his homeland of El Salvador.
