Antonio Paramo

Antonio Páramo was born In Juventino Rosas, Guanajuato, Mexico. He was preceded in death by son, Antonio Páramo Jr.; daughter, Juanita; his mother, Petra; in-laws, Max & Luz Perez; and two grandchildren, Jon Michael Philip & Lisa Lorigan.

He is survived by his wife of 58 years, Ramona; sons and daughters-in-law, Frank & Sally, Robert & Joanne, Reymund & Linda, Santos & Wendy, Joe & Lisa, Jesse & Veronica, Johnny & Deena; daughters and son-in-law, Gloria Páramo, Amelia & Tim Nieto, Rose Páramo Moody; eighteen grandchildren; three great grandchildren; and his brother, Robert Aguilar and his family of Guadalajara, Mexico.

His wife and children are thankful to God that he is now resting in peace. “Papi” (as we called him), was a very kind and generous man; giving to others; accepting of everyone; always being the first to extend a warm welcome with a smile to family, friends, and strangers alike. Tony, as some of his friends knew him, had no formal education. He worked hard all his life. He retired at age 63 from Henna Chevrolet where he worked for 22 years. “Don” Antonio, as others knew him, impressed upon his children the importance of family and being able to always depend on family … always. And also, above all, “Papi” gave his children a strong belief, faith and gratefulness to God from Whom we receive all of our Blessings. God is our Creator and our Saviour.

To each of you who held us in your good thoughts and prayers during the past two months, thank you and may God’s Blessings be bestowed upon each of you.
