Antonio Farin Obituary

Antonio “Tony� Galeng Farin, 73, went to be with The Lord on May 31, 2019 after a brave battle with ALS. He was born in San Narciso, Zambales, Philippines to the late Juan and Asuncion Farin. Tony retired from the U.S. Navy after 21 years. He then served with the Military Sealift Command for 15 years. He was stationed in Virginia Beach, VA in 1977 which he was fortunate to make his permanent home. Tony loved to watch all sports, western dramas, gardening and fishing. His biggest passion came later in life as his grandchildren were born. He adored them and spoiled them to no end. Tony always had a story to share or joke to tell. He was a great friend, devoted husband, loving father, caring uncle, and an amazing grandfather. Left to cherish his memory are his wife of 48 years, Delia Juliano Farin; daughter Claire Anne Hersey and husband Ryan of Chesapeake, VA; son Carl Anthony Farin and partner Brandi Gardner of Virginia Beach, VA; sister Remedios Farin; brother Alfonso Farin; sister Venus Landingin; brother Nestor Farin; three grandsons, Dylan, Keegan and Anthony; and a plethora of extended family and friends. A Novena will be held at 5:00pm followed by a viewing on June 9, 2019 at Hollomon-Brown Funeral Home located at 3445 Princess Anne Road, Virginia Beach, VA 23456.

I'm truly sorry to hear of Mr. Farin's passing. I would like to offer my sincere condolences to his family. Jeremiah 29:11, 12 assures us God is thinking thoughts of peace towards us, to give us a future and a hope. And that if we come and pray to Him, He will listen to us. In the days to come may you find comfort in that hope.

Our thoughts and condolences to the Farin family.

Psalm 90:10 says that the days of our years are 70 years, And if because of special mightiness they are 80 years.
May the memories of the wonderful times you shared together bring a smile and joy in your heart.
