Antonio began his life in the Philippines where he met his wife Elisa Garin. After they married, they traveled to the US where they started their family and growing a strong support system. Antonio’s first job was picking broccoli in the fields and their lives grew from there. He was due to retire from his most current job at RR Donnelly.
Antonio enjoyed many of the blessings life had to offer. You’d often see him cycling long distances with friends, barbecuing for his family on weekends, singing karaoke and spending time with his grandchildren. Antonio was the life of the party. His laughter and lively personality will be missed tremendously.
