Anthony James Keathley, known to all as Tony, passed away on January 16, 2026, far too soon, leaving behind a family who loved him deeply.
Tony’s greatest pride and joy were his children, Ella and Fin Keathley. Being their father was the most important role of his life, and he loved them beyond measure. He shared his children with their mother, Veronica Jupina.
He is survived by his mother, Karen Keathley; father, Leroy Diaz; brothers, Marc Keathley and Mathew Keathley; sisters, Tami Keathley Byers and Debi Martin; as well as several aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, and nephews. He was preceded in death by his brother, Adam John Keathley.
Tony enjoyed ocean fishing, spending time in nature, and especially time with his family. He was a loyal fan of the San Francisco 49ers and loved cheering them on. Tony had the ability to make lifelong friends wherever he went, and so many will miss his laughter, antics, and warm smile. He will be remembered for his generous spirit and the deep love he had for his family.
Though his time was short, the memories he leaves behind will live on in the hearts of all who knew him.
Funeral arrangements were entrusted to England Family Mortuary, Inc.
