Tony M. Savedra, age 61, of Riverside, California passed away on Sunday, December 4, 2022. Tony was born in San Diego, CA to Manuela and Braublio Savedra. He is survived by his brothers Richard, Ramiro, Bob, Danny, David and Jeff Savedra along with his sister Rosa Savedra. He also leaves behind his soul mate, best friend, and love of his life of 45 years, Denise Savedra, who's side he never left in all their years together. Tony and Denise met at the tender age of 15 &16 in February of 1978 in Riverside, Ca where they lived all their lives together. They were married 10 months later on December 15, 1978. They then began their family welcoming their firstborn, Dedra Savedra on September 26, 1979, with three more children to follow Angelina Luna (1981), Antonio Savedra II (1992), and Destinee Savedra (1995). Tony was taught how to paint which led him to his many years as a painter starting at Rohr and retiring at Northrup where he was very proud to have the honor and privilege of painting both the stealth bomber and F-18. Tony was a proud Grandfather, Papa and Great- grandfather to Elisei Seulean, Casondra Luna, Dominique (Domageek) Luna, Alexis Mejia, Robert (Shorty) Luna, Wilber Mejia, Isabella Savedra, April Garcia, Lillie (Honey) Orlow, Nolan (Potato head) Garcia, Zaayden Seulean, Braxton Roman, Nereya Mejia and two more blessing coming 2023. Tony also leaves behind his son in law, Juan Garcia and Daughter in law, Rosy Henriquez. Tony called himself " A Jack of all trades, master of none." He was the guy to call to fix anything, or when you needed advice on paperwork, or had questions about mechanical issues, yet never expected anything in return. He was one of the most giving people we have known, if you ever came to his house for a party, you never left hungry or empty handed. He was a lover of cars, cooking, dancing and music, especially listening to Friday night oldies with his wife Densie. Tony was a very proud, hardworking man that has always provided for his family. Tony loved nothing more than to spend time with his family, going on trips, simple family dinners, just spending time in front of the fireplace and sitting on his porch watching the grandkids play. Tony had many friends that he cared for and never hesitated to help throughout his entire life til the very end. Tony was not only a father figure to his children and grandchildren, but to others who were lucky enough to have crossed his path in life. He was a very generous man with his time, money and knowledge. If you ever had the pleasure to have met Tony, I'm sure you too have a story to tell or memory to share because he truly was an unforgettable, one-of-a-kind man who is and will forever be missed. Always loved and forever remembered.
