Anthony Rubalcaba, beloved husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle, co-worker, neighbor, and friend, was born on October 27,1960, in Dinuba, California, to Catalina(katie) and Tony Rubalcaba who have proceeded him in death.

Anthony married his high school sweetheart, Virginia Huerta Rubalcaba, and together they shared 46 beautiful years. Their marriage was blessed with four children, eight grandchildren, and one great-grandchild, each one was the pride and joy of Anthony's life.
He is lovingly remembered by:

For 45 years, Anthony worked faithfully at JM Eagle, where his dedication and strong work ethic were deeply respected. Outside of work, he enjoyed life's simple but meaningful pleasures: cheering on the Rams, camping, traveling across different states, exploring history and museums, attending church, and spending time visiting with family and friends.
Above all, Anthony devoted his life to his family. Nothing brought him joy than being surrounded by his children, grandchildren, and great-granddaughter. Their laughter, energy, and love were his greatest blessings. He played with them, encouraged them, and cherished every moment he shared with them.
In October 2023, Anthony was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and was given a five month prognosis. Through God's grace, unwavering faith and the love surrounding him, he was gifted nearly two more years of life. A period of precious time he filled with courage, gratitude, and presence.
On September 20,2025, Anthony was called home to be with his lord and savior, Jesus christ. His passing leaves a profound emptiness in the hearts of those who loved hime, yet heaven has gained extraordinary soul. No one can replace the wonderful, beautiful person he was, but his legacy of love, strength, and kindness will continue to live on through every life he touched.
To have known Anthony is to have known love to have been in his presence is to have been in peace. To have conversated with him is to have been respected to have seen his beauty is to have witnessed a gentle soul. To join us in celebrating his life is to pour our shared love for him into eternity.
Forever our loving, husband, father, grandpa, son, brother, uncle, in-law, friend, co-worker and neighbor
