Antonio J. Villarreal entered into eternal rest on Monday, August 2, 2021 at his residence in Beeville, Texas, surrounded by his family. He was born on July 5, 1947 to Guadalupe Villarreal and Natividad Jasso Villarreal in Encino, Texas and blessed us with 74 years of memories to be cherished forever.
Antonio worked for over 30 years in the natural gas industry, as well as 47 years with Falfurrias, Texas law enforcement agencies. His most memorable reminiscences were when serving his community as a Constable for 14 years. He married the love of his life, Agueda Gonzalez Villarreal, and together they raised five children in Falfurrias. Antonio was also a mentor to many and a friend to all. He was very friendly and always willing to make conversation. He was his happiest when he was on horseback, working on his ranch and spending quality time with his family.
He was preceded in death by his parents Guadalupe and Natividad Villarreal; daughter, Velma Villarreal and three brothers, Guadalupe Villarreal, George Villarreal and Homero Villarreal.
Antonio is survived by his loving wife of 55 years, Agueda G. Villarreal of Beeville; two sons, Humberto (Isabel) Villarreal and Lupe Rey (Angelica) Villarreal both of Beeville; two daughters, Veronica Villarreal and Nora (Joshua) Coleman both of Laredo, Texas; two brothers, Leonel Villarreal of Falfurrias and Juan Villarreal of San Antonio, Texas; two sisters, Audelia Cantu of San Antonio and Elida Garcia of Oklahoma; 13 grandchildren; five great-grandchildren and many extended family members and friends.
