Alex Trevino Jr., 67, of Racine, passed away at Froedtert Medical Center in Milwaukee on Saturday, September 7, 2024 with his family at his side. He was born in Racine on December 12, 1956, the son of the late Alejandro and Isabelle (nee: Chacon) Trevino.
Alex graduated from William Horlick High School. He was the partner of Nicala Aiello for over 24 years. They married around 10 years ago but neither one can ever remember when exactly, as they celebrated their anniversary on the day of their first date, March 3. One day when they were at Summerfest their first year together, Alex drew Nikki’s attention to four teenage boys who had just snuck past the gate. When he went over, gave them $20 and told them to have a good time, she knew Alex was the guy for her.
Alex was a senior technician in the microbiology lab at S.C. Johnson & Son Inc. He worked there for 37 years and retired in 2014. Alex was a well-known community league baseball player in Racine. After high school he was invited to minor league try-outs but decided to stay in Racine and be a dad, a decision he never regretted. For years he played in the Por la Gente tournament, helping to raise money for scholarships for Latinx students.
Alex enjoyed talking politics and was excited about voting for Kamala Harris in November. You could honor him by making sure you vote. He liked movies and all kinds of sports and was looking forward to getting out on the golf course after that second hip was fixed. He really loved being Bumpa to his grandchildren and enjoyed every minute he spent with them.
Surviving are his loving and devoted wife Nikki; two daughters, Amanda (Tony) Chaudoir and Amalia (Rolando) Morales; six grandchildren, Analisa (Mike Phillips) Trevino, Victoria (Eric) Vargo-Chaudoir, Rolando Morales, Ava Morales, Eva Chaudoir, and Tony Chaudoir; four sisters, Dolores Bains, of Las Vegas, NV, Linda (Frank) Ruiz, Sylvia (Marty Bernal) Trevino, Elaine (Johnny) Bazan, all of Racine; two brothers, Enrique (Kate) Trevino, of Racine and Rudy (Jovita) Trevino, of Milwaukee; his mother-in-law Janet Aiello; his six sisters-in-law and assorted brothers-in-law; Lisa and Jose Torano, Eva Aiello-Larrabee, Anna (Gary Ricchio) Aiello, Theresa (Robert Surdyk) Aiello, Christa and Geoff Thompsen, Rosemarie Aiello and Matt Rinehart. Also surviving Alex are many, many nieces and nephews and ex-wife Sue Trevino. In addition to his parents, Alex was preceded in death by his sister, Maria Garcia and his father-in-law, Mario Aiello.
