Anthony “Tony” Alcázar

Anthony "Tony" Alcázar, age 63, passed away on November 13, 2025. Tony was a remarkable soul whose kindness, dedication, and quiet strength touched everyone who had the privilege of knowing him. Humble in his talents, Tony expressed himself through music and art with creativity and dedication. Whether he was playing, composing, or drawing, he contributed a unique and thoughtful presence to everything he touched.

He spent much of his life working behind the scenes in the music industry, supporting artists, productions, and creative projects that brought joy to so many. Even though he was not a fan of the spotlight, Tony took deep pride in helping shape the music he loved and found genuine happiness in being part of the creative process.

A graduate of Foy H. Moody High School, Tony lived his life with deep loyalty and generosity. Loved by many, he believed that friends were family, and he carried that belief into every relationship he built. Tony was also a man of quiet but steady faith. His spirituality shaped his compassion, humility, and the gentle way he cared for others throughout his life.

Tony was preceded in death by his parents, Genaro R. Alcázar Sr. and Maria V. Alcázar; his older brothers, José "Joe" Jesus Alcázar and Genaro "Bob" R. Alcázar Jr.; and his nephew, Jason D. Alexander of Woodbridge, Virginia.

He is survived by his siblings: Maria del Socorro "Mary" Alexander (Neil) of Woodbridge, Virginia; Roseanna Alcázar of Waco, Texas; Lydia A. López, Dora Jean and Victor R. Alcázar, all of Corpus Christi; and sister-in-law, Tonia Ramirez from San Antonio, Texas.
