Mr. Anthony Francis Moreno

Anthony Francis Moreno, 72, passed away Friday, December 12, 2025, in Oak Point, TX. Anthony was born January 17, 1953, to Antonio Perez and Anne Elizabeth (Martin) Moreno in Madera, CA. He married Catherine Louise Dudley, August 2, 1986, in Las Vegas, NV.

Anthony Moreno was a devoted husband, loving father, and proud grandfather whose life was defined by kindness, service, and faith. To his family, he was a steady source of love, wisdom, and support, always placing their needs above his own and taking great joy in the moments they shared together.

Anthony was also a caring neighbor and a gracious, loyal friend. He had a quiet way of making others feel welcome and valued, whether through a friendly conversation, a helping hand, or simply being present when someone needed him. His generosity of spirit left a lasting impression on all who knew him.

Professionally, Anthony enjoyed a distinguished 38-year career with NASA, from which he retired with pride. His dedication and hard work reflected his deep sense of responsibility and commitment to excellence, contributing to a legacy of service that spanned nearly four decades.

From a young age, Anthony embraced the values of leadership and service as an Eagle Scout, and he carried those ideals throughout his life as a dedicated adult Scouter. Mentoring young people and giving back to the community brought him great fulfillment.

A man of deep faith, Anthony was an active and devout parishioner who faithfully served his church for many years. He shared his musical gifts as a choir member and bass player at several parishes, using his talents to uplift worship and bring people together in praise.

Anthony took great pride in the Texas home he built for himself and his beloved wife, often calling it "the best house I've ever lived in." It was a place of comfort, love, and cherished memories-a true reflection of the life they built together.

Anthony Moreno will be remembered for his unwavering love, gentle spirit, and the many lives he touched. His legacy lives on in his family, his faith, and the countless people who were blessed to know him.

Anthony is preceded in death by his parents Antonio and Anne.
