The Bakersfield Californian 
Atencio, Albert Anthony     
1966 - 2005 
 
Albert Anthony Atencio (Little Buddy) (Ripper) 
March 28, 1966 - October 12, 2005 

A Rosary will be prayed on Monday, October, 17th, at 6:00 p.m. and chapel 
services on Tuesday, October 18th at 1:00 p.m. at Mission Family Mortuary with 
graveside service following at Greenlawn Cemetery on Panorama Drive. Little 
Buddy Atencio was born in Bakersfield on March 28, 1966 to Albert Buddy 
Atencio and Kathleen Conn Atencio and was called home on October 12, 2005. He 
is survived by his father, Albert Atencio; sisters, Yvette, Tammie, Adrianne 
and Hannah; children, Tristan, Anastasia, Sebastian, Alexander and Courtney; 
nephews, Christian, Skylar, Talon and niece, Randalyn of Bakersfield; and 
stepmother Marilyn Ruiz also of Bakersfield. Buddy is also loved and survived 
by many aunts, uncles, cousins and friends. Buddy was preceded in death by his 
mother Kathleen Conn Atencio and grandparents Joseph and Lucia Atencio. Buddy 
was born and raised in Bakersfield, attended local schools and obtained his 
G.E.D. in 1988 having received the highest score of all students taking the 
exam that year. He was a very loving, intelligent, polite and handsome man who 
adored not only his children, but also the siblings of his children. He was a 
man of many different facets throughout his life. As an adolescent he loved 
Star Wars, Dungeons & Dragons, playing video games and rock music. He loved 
being with his many relatives and friends at family gatherings, and there were 
many. As a teenager his interests leaned toward punk rock music, wearing a 
Mohawk, hanging out at Tangents Nightclub and cruising Chester Ave. with his 
friends. Whether he was in trouble or out of trouble his friends were by his 
side and he by theirs. Through the years he remained fond of reading novels 
ranging from Roald Dahl, Tom Clancy to JRR Tolkein. Buddy also enjoyed doing 
crossword puzzles that many of us would find baffling. He loved his music and 
most recently loved taking pictures with his digital camera. Buddy brought joy 
and happiness to many through his accepting and nonjudgmental personality. He 
was a friend to everyone he met. He was, and always will be our Little Buddy. 
Perhaps they are not the stars, but rather openings in Heaven where the love 
of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know they are 
happy. May you be happy and at peace now, Little Buddy. We love you always. 
Your Family
