Michael Anthony Mauricio

Michael Anthony Mauricio, 69, of Seguin, Texas, passed away peacefully on August 8, 2025, surrounded by love and memories.

Born on July 16, 1956, Michael lived a life full of heart, humor, and generosity. He was a man who never met a stranger-always ready with a helping hand, a fishing pole, or a story to tell. Whether he was digging for treasures with his metal detector, casting a line with his fishing buddies, or simply showing up when someone needed him, Michael made a lasting impact on everyone he met.

He was preceded in death by his beloved mother, Augustina Rosales Mauricio; his father-in-law, Ignacio Flores Cantu; and his mother-in-law, Gloria Aurora Cantu-each of whom held a special place in his heart.

He is survived by his devoted wife, Theresa Cantu Mauricio, and their beloved children, Lyle Anthony Mauricio (Lori Elizabeth Sandoval) and Miclynn Marie Mauricio. He also leaves behind his loyal pet companion Gervin, and his unforgettable cat roommate, Kenzo "Schizo", who made sure every chair was shared and every quiet moment had company.

Michael is survived by his brother, Reynaldo Reyes, and his best friend, Steven Patrick McHugh. His fishing adventures were legendary and joyfully shared with his fishing buddies, Cruz Isaac and Ace Anthony Tiller.

Family meant everything to Michael. He is lovingly remembered by Dianna Cantu Salazar and Pete Salazar, as well as Giovanni Marcel Salazar, Gianna Isabella Salazar, Gillianna Isabella Salazar, Gionni Marcel Salazar, David Austen Kernodle, Josh Aaron Kernodle, Gerard A. Mauricio, Dora J. Mauricio Holguin, Lucy A. Mauricio Farley and numerous other family members.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Monday, August 18, 2025, at Picks Bar located at 4553 N Loop 1604 W #1101 San Antonio, Tx 78249 from 5pm-8pm. All ages are welcome to attend. In true Michael fashion, and in lieu of flowers, the family asks that you tip your bartenders-a gesture he would've appreciated and probably insisted on.

Michael's legacy lives on in every laugh, every shared memory, and every act of quiet kindness. He will be deeply missed, fondly remembered, and always loved.
