Antonio Elizondo Obituary

Antonio (Tony) Elizondo was born on July 31, 1928, and went to heaven peacefully on August 22, 2022, in Shavano Park, Texas. Throughout his life he showed the power of his faith through his love for family, and care and respect for all.

Tony served in the Pacific and China with Marine Corp in WW II. After his service he married his childhood sweetheart Mary Louise on May 1, 1949. They raised two sons and two daughters. Tony had a career in electronics engineering, which spanned working on the first early warning radar system for ICBMs, the Apollo communications system, and running his own businesses. He always strived to excel and was a great role model and inspiration for his children.

Tony is survived by sons Michael (Miki), Roy (Barb), daughter Rebecca (Richard); seven grandchildren, five great grandchildren and many nieces and nephews.
He is reunited in Heaven with his wife Mary Louise and daughter Linda.

Uncle Tony was the most caring and nicest Uncle. Our family living in Fort Worth Texas and my Uncle Tony and my Aunt Mary living in Irving Texas gave us the opportunity to spend holidays together. He had the best laugh ever. He loved to tell jokes. I will miss them forever until we meet again.
