Diego Gonzalez, 76, of Mount Kisco, New York passed away on June 5, 2025 surrounded by his family. Diego was born on July 16, 1948 in Lariño, Spain.
Diego was a devoted husband, father, and grandfather. He was married to his loving wife, Dolores, for 44 years. Together, they built a beautiful life filled with love, laughter, and unwavering support for one another. Their bond was one of deep respect and affection, and Diego often spoke of the joy he found in sharing life's journey with Dolores by his side.
As a father, Diego was a guiding force-firm yet gentle, wise, and always ready with a kind word or a helping hand. He leaves behind three beloved children: Lolita (Billy), Andy (Nicole), and Diego (Stephanie). His love for them was boundless, and he took immense pride in watching them grow into the remarkable individuals they are today. Diego also spent years upon years coaching his children in his favorite game of soccer. He was an avid Barcelona and Spain National Team fan. Some of his favorite memories were when Spain won both the World and Euro Cups.
Diego's legacy lives on in his grandchildren, who brought him immeasurable joy. He was the proud grandfather or as the kids called him Abo/Abuelo of Sophia, Layla, Gabriella, Liana, and Mateo, and eagerly awaited the arrival of another grandson, a little one he was looking forward to meeting and welcoming into his heart. His grandchildren were the light of his life, and he cherished every moment spent with them.
Diego is also survived by his sister Augustina and his brother Jose (Isabel). Diego was also a wonderful uncle to many nieces and nephews
Diego's life was one of purpose, integrity, and deep love for those around him. His calm presence, his generosity of spirit, and his dedication to his family will never be forgotten. He leaves behind a void in the hearts of all who knew him, but also a profound sense of gratitude for the years he shared with his loved ones.
Diego's life can be celebrated in several ways. A wake in his honor will be on Wednesday, June 11, 2025 from 4-8pm at Oelker-Cox & Sinatra Funeral Home at 262 East Main Street, Mount Kisco, New York.
Diego's life will further be celebrated at a funeral mass on Thursday, June 12, 2025 at 10am at St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church at 2 Green Street, Mount Kisco, New York. His burial will take place proceeding mass at St. Francis Cemetery at 236 Lexington Avenue, Mount Kisco, New York.
