SAN ANTONIO – An ofrenda dedicated to Edward Trejo, who was killed in a 2025 fatal shooting, was displayed at Muertos Fest. Edward Trejo’s mother, Andrea, decorated an altar at Hemisfair to share the memory of her son with the community. “He was such a light,” Andrea Trejo said. “We made an ofrenda for him, an altar to show who he was as a person as we still fight for justice for the loss of my son’s life.” Edward Trejo was shot and killed in December 2025 at a residence in the 300 block of Cincinnati Avenue.
