Antonio Tellez Obituary

**In Loving Memory of Antonio “Tony” Tellez** It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our dearest Tony Tellez, who left us peacefully on August 21, 2024, at the age of 87. Tony was born on November 21, 1936, in Safford, Arizona. Tony was a cherished husband, loving father, and dedicated friend to many. Tony is survived by his devoted wife, Mary, and their beloved children, Donald, Roxanne, and Laurie. He was a pillar of strength and a beacon of love and wisdom in our family, always putting others before himself and showing boundless love, dedication and kindness. Tony had many passions, including cycling, playing racquetball, and spending time with family.


Tony will be remembered for his unconditional love, generosity, and kindness. His legacy lives on through the countless lives he touched with his warmth, his enduring love, and his unwavering determination.


A memorial service to celebrate Tony's life will be held on Thursday, September 5, 2024, starting at 9:00 am at Queen of Heaven Mortuary.


The family extends their deepest gratitude to the extended family, friends, and caregivers who provided support and comfort during this difficult time. Your love and kindness have been a source of strength for us all. Rest in peace, dear Tony. You will forever be in our hearts and minds.

Uncle Tony, it is with deepest sorrow and sadness that I write this tribute to you. You were an uncle in a million; you were always humble, kind, loving, caring and good in your heart and soul

We little knew that God was to call your name. In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same. It broke our hearts to lose you, you did not go alone. For part of us went with you the day God called you home. You left us beautiful memories, your love is still our guide, and though we cannot see you, you are always at our side. Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same, but as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.

God in His infinite wisdom knows best. May Our Lord comfort and sustain our family. May God Almighty keep you safe resting in perfect peace. We know you are in a better place, and one day we shall meet again.

My daughter and granddaughter and I had the opportunity to pay a visit a few years ago. We traveled from AZ and met with Tony and Mary. They found my cousins to be loving and welcoming as I already knew they were. I will miss his contagious laugh and fun personality. He lived a full and long life and left a wonderful legacy in his beautiful family and friends that will last forever ❤

Uncle Tony has always been my beacon for living a wholesome, wonderful life rooted in family, honor and dedication. Alongside the most amazing patriarch/mother/auntie/sister, we were never short of feeling the love from Uncle Tony and the glow of being in his presence. I will miss his gentlemanly handshake, amazing smile and the warmth of being in his orbit. I am beyond blessed to have these wonderful memories and such wonderful extended family.
