Antonio Gallegos

January 17, 1952 – August 27, 2025

It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Antonio Gallegos, who departed this life on August 27, 2025, at the age of 73. Born on January 17, 1952, in Mexico, Antonio's journey through life was marked by his warmth, kindness, and unyielding love for his family and friends. Antonio was a cherished son, brother, and companion whose spirit will be profoundly missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him. A man of simple joys, he found great pleasure in watching classic television shows such as “Gunsmoke”, “The Rifleman”, “Bonanza”, and “The Waltons”, which reflected his appreciation for timeless tales of heroism and family. Music was a constant in his life, accompanying him through moments of happiness and reflection. In addition to his love for entertainment, Antonio was an avid card player; he enjoyed engaging in spirited games of poker and solitaire. However, it was the beloved Mexican game of Lotería that held a special place in his heart, bringing him joy and connection with his loved ones.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Ambrosio and Paula Gallegos; brothers, Juan Manuel Gallegos, and Andres Gallegos.

Left to cherish his memory are his siblings, Romanita (Felix) Cruz, Graciela (Lorenzo †) Talavera, Maria de la Luz (Guadalupe) Martinez, Edemecio (Rosa Maria) Gallegos, Eliseo Gallegos, Guadalupe Oliva Gallegos (Pastor James P. Webb), Ambrosio (Alejandra) Gallegos, Angelica Sofia Gallegos, Jose Luis Gallegos. He is also survived by numerous other loving relatives and friends.
