Heaven at the age of 86 years old. He peacefully passed away at home on November 28, 2024,
Thanksgiving Day, surrounded by his wife and family.
Left to cherish his memory is his beloved wife of 67 years, Nicolasa Esther Arredondo. Together they
formed a family and had 6 children, Mariano Arredondo Jr, Isidro Arredondo, Gabriel Arredondo,
Manuel Arredondo (Gloria), Estella A. Straquadine (Tony) and Reynaldo Arredondo. He also leaves
18 beloved grandchildren and great -grandchildren.
He worked for many years as a diesel mechanic at Van De Walle Farms on the west-side of San
Antonio where he grew an appreciation for working on engines, a trade he would later share with his
sons and grandsons. One of his greatest things in life was being a father and grandpa, always
offering a welcoming smile, open arms and even tough love when needed. He enjoyed to sit and
talk, joke and always offered to help fix anything his family needed help with. When hard times
came for anyone he loved he offered everything he had to help make things better and he was a
protector, always wanting his family to be safe and together.
Mariano Perez Arredondo is preceded in death by his parents Manuel and Teodora Arredondo, all 8
of his siblings and his beloved grandson, Isidro R. Mata who he loved and missed dearly.
Our beloved, we could not have ever had a better husband, father and grandpa. We will miss you
everyday and you will never be forgotten. We pick up the pieces of our broken hearts and bring you
with us, today and always. Rest in peace until we meet again.
