by his side. Tony is preceded in death by his wife, Frances DeLeon Padilla;

country by way of the U.S. Navy from December 1943 ? February 1946. Upon 
returning to the states he worked and retired with 50 years vested in the 
Laborers Union Local 220. His hobbies were fishing with his family and friends 
and maintaining his abundant stock of Craftsman tools. Later, his favorite 
past time became visits to the Valley plaza where he would spend his 
afternoons getting in his daily walk as well as shopping for the perfect 
fishing rod which he hoped would catch the "Big One." Most important of all, 
Grandpa gave his heart to Jesus shortly before his passing. We would like to 
express our appreciation to Eddie Padilla for allowing Grandpa to accompany 
him in his travels. Grandpa, you will be remembered by your family and 
friends. We love you and God bless you, Calli, Leslie and Stephanie. For
