It is with a heavy heart that we share the news of Antonio Acevedo’s peaceful passing on May 19, 2025. A deeply loved son, devoted father, cherished husband, proud grandfather, and loyal friend, Antonio’s legacy is etched into the hearts of everyone who had the honor of knowing him. He was a cornerstone of the Oceanside, California community—someone whose presence could light up a room and whose wisdom grounded those around him.
Antonio was a man defined not just by his strength and resilience, but also by the depth of his compassion. His unwavering faith carried him through life’s many challenges, and it was that same faith that offered comfort in his final days. Through every season of his life, Antonio remained committed to the things that mattered most: family, integrity, and kindness.
He was a father who believed in leading by example. Antonio worked hard to provide for his family, instilling in his children a strong sense of responsibility, humility, and the importance of community. As a husband, he was a partner in the truest sense—steadfast, patient, and endlessly supportive. His love for his wife was evident in the quiet acts of care, the shared laughs, and the lifetime of memories they built together.
As a grandfather, Antonio’s face lit up in the presence of his grandchildren. They were the joy of his life, and he never missed an opportunity to teach them something new, tell a story from his youth, or simply sit beside them and listen with genuine interest and care.
Those who knew Antonio will remember his infectious smile, his calm and reassuring voice, and his ability to make everyone feel seen and valued. Whether offering words of wisdom, lending a helping hand, or simply being present, Antonio gave generously of himself. He lived by a code of honor and love that inspired all who crossed his path.
As we gather in remembrance, let us also celebrate the beautiful life Antonio lived—a life marked by love, faith, and service. His spirit lives on in the lessons he taught, the stories he shared, and the countless lives he touched.

Though he may be gone from our sight, Antonio will never be gone from our hearts. May he rest in eternal peace, and may we honor his memory by living with the same grace, compassion, and faith that he exemplified every day.
