Alfred Nunez Obituary

Alfred Nunez of Chino passed away peacefully on January 5th. Fred was known for his work ethic, sense of humor, and craftsmanship skills. He loved his family and friends, and was a beloved father, grandfather, son, and brother. Fred enjoyed home improvement projects, rebuilding muscle cars, and learning new things. He was a lifelong Lakers fan, and is remembered for his generosity, laugh, and ironclad will. Fred taught many of us how to grow and evolve, and always looked for ways to be a better person to those around him. Fred will live on through his three loving children and two adoring grandchildren. His immediate family will hold a small memorial service in February, and a celebration of life will take place at a later date with his extended family and friends.

Fred,
There are loved ones missing from kitchen tables everywhere. No truer words can be said for our family.

What I will miss the most are our meals. Simple times, cooking, laughing, crying, planningspending time together.
For you there will always be a place at our table. Now it’s time to take your place at God’s table.
Amen,
Your loving, sister in law,

Arleen

First and foremost we would like to offer our Sincerest and heartfelt condolences to Fred's Family and all of his loved ones. Nothing we can say can express how sad we are to lose someone so special to us, we consider Fred family. We have nothing but great memories of Fred. He was always so selfless, the last communication we had with Fred was a few months back, he reached out to us during covid to make sure we are safe and to tell Manny to please be careful on the the bus and to wear a mask. No matter what he was going through he always had our back. We are really going to miss him!! Rest In Perfect Peace Fred, till we meet again.

I will always remember the fun times in high school and the camping and off-road trips with Johnny, Dario and Frank. Just when you should be enjoying time as a Grandfather, the Lord decided to call you home. You'll be greatly missed.

I worked with Fred at the The Gas Company for about 15 years . He had been there a few years before I came into Measurement Data Operations. Whenever I had questions he was so eager to help. Always patient and thorough. Always in good spirits, laughing and joking with his coworkers. He’ll never be forgotten.

Uncle Fred, There are so many memories I’ll look back on and smile, but here are a few of my favorite..

I remember having lunch with you, my dad, and Mark on a random weekday afternoon at Yardhouse a few years ago. You and my dad told us stories about growing up with grandpa and grandpa, argued over which of you was the better behaved child, talked about your many cars, and which ones my dad crashed. I’ll always remember the sparkle in your eyes and the excitement in your voice when taking about the old days with my dad and Nina.

I remember seeing you a few weeks after Jesse proposed. You excitedly rushed up to me to see my ring and ask how the wedding planning was going. You told me not to take it easy on my dad and his budget and suggested steak and lobster for the menu. When I asked you if you would be in my wedding, you told me it would be your honor and I am so happy to have been able to share it with you. I’ll cherish those memories and photos forever.

I remember your warm laugh and your welcoming smile. You always wanted everyone to feel included. I will always remember you at my dads bar, surrounded by family and friends, giving toasts, smiling and laughing into the night; You were everyone’s favorite uncle/brother/Nino.

But above all, you will be remembered as a warrior. You fought hard through your 59 years, harder than any of us will ever know. Your silent strength and determination throughout your life will always be a testament to your love of family and love of life. My favorite poet wrote on death, “only when you drink from the river of silence shall you indeed sing. And when you have reached the mountain top, then you shall begin to climb. And when the earth shall claim your limbs, then shall you truly dance.”

So that’s how I’ll be thinking of you: laughing, smiling, singing, climbing, and dancing in paradise. With Grandpa, Grandma, and maybe even Kobe.

We will all miss you.

Uncle Fred, I love you and I’ll miss you. I enjoyed all the stories you shared, particularly the ones where you were making fun of my dad. You always had a positive outlook on life and you were always wonderful to be around. I’ll miss the car shows, the hang outs, and I’ll cherish the memories we’ve made over the years. Rest easy.

Fred, close your eyes my brother, and rest your body. Your work here on earth is done. You have shown beyond doubt your love for your children, your grandchildren, and your family. You have left this earth having given far more than you have ever taken. You have set an example for us all to live by, not to take anything for granted and that the gift of life is not about taking all we can but giving all we can. Take your place in paradise with God our father and reunite and celebrate with our family that have gone before you. Please wait for me and one day we will hug, cry and laugh again but only this time it will be in perpetual peace and happiness. I only wish I had told you that you were my best friend - you will always be my best friend. God has a special place for you in his kingdom, and for all those that suffered here on earth. Peace my brother and enjoy your freedom from pain and suffering. We will miss you beyond words, until we meet again.

To Fred's family and loved ones:

There are no words that can be said to end your grief and sense of loss. Just as we are seeing light during this horrible pandemic, his life was taken from us too soon. No time to say goodbye, no time to mourn together and no time to give him the farewell he deserved. Rest in peace Fred. I will be opening the bottle of Don Q you gave me and having a drink in your honor.
